I used 1-1/2 cups ground up zucchini. I too thought it did not seem chocolatey enough when I read the recipe but went by what it said and it seemed like enough chocolate to me. I am sure you could add another tablespoon of cocoa and have no negligible difference in the batter. If it would make the batter too thick, add a tiny bit of water. No, the top is not grainy. One thing I might suggest, when you put the chocolate chips on the top, to get it to melt quickly so you can spread it, pop it in the oven at 350 F for about 30 seconds so they melt.
