Instructions:
Peel and roughly chop zucchini.  Put in food
processor and pulse until it looks like a really thick green applesauce. 

Put in a seive over a bowl, and force most of the juice out.  Let drain overnight in fridge.  (Don't throw away that zucchini juice!   Use it in a smoothie, like this smoothie!)

Preheat oven to 350° F. Line 9-inch-square baking pan with foil.

Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in medium bowl.   In another small bowl, whip the egg whites a bit, and combine with oil and vanilla.
