Ingredients
  • Cookies:
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon apple pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup grated zucchini (I prefer to peel it before grating)
  • Cream Cheese Frosting:
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups or more powdered sugar
  • enough milk or half-and-half to thin the frosting, if needed, to spreading consistency

Directions
  1. For the cookies, cream together both sugars and butter; stir in egg until well blended.
  2. Mix dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.
  3. Add dry ingredients alternately with the grated zucchini, to the creamed mixture, mixing until all ingredients are well blended.
  4. Drop batter by spoonfuls onto lightly greased cookie sheets.
  5. Bake cookies at 375 degrees for about 11 to 14 minutes, until they test done.
  6. Remove cookies from pan to waxed paper to cool; cool completely before frosting.
  7. To make the frosting, cream together softened cream cheese, butter and vanilla until well blended.
  8. Stir in enough powdered sugar to make the frosting the right consistency; add a bit of milk or half-and-half if you need to thin it out.
  9. Lightly frost cooled cookies with the frosting.
