Zucchini cookies

If you dislike zucchini ,then you might want to try these!! They are so good that when I made them on Saturday were almost out on Tuesday. 

1 medium zucchini (with skin)

  1/2 cup butter, room temperature

                                                          1 cup sugar
                                                             1 egg
                                                  2 cups all purpose flour
                                                    1 tsp baking soda
                                                      1 t cinnamon 
                                                       1/4 t allspice
                                                         1/2 tsp salt
                                                 1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Finely grate the zucchini and, using several paper towels, squeeze as much moisture as possible out of it. You should have approximately 1 cup of zucchini. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and allspice.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light. Beat in egg, then zucchini, and gradually beat in the flour mixture. When the cookie dough has just come together, stir in the raisins.
Scoop by tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheet. Cookies will spread, so leave at least 1 1/2 inches between scoops.
Bake for 13-15 minutes at 350F, until light golden at edges, but not browned all over (which could cause them to be too dry).
Cool on baking sheet for about 4-5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 3 dozen.
