Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Spread pecans onto a baking sheet. Cut butter into small pieces and scatter on top of pecans.
- Broil in the preheated oven until pecans start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 5 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. Remove from oven and allow to cool, about 10 minutes. Transfer pecans to a cutting board and smash or crush into small pieces.
- Turn off broiler and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 cups of a muffin tin with paper liners. Spray inside of liners with cooking spray.
- Combine zucchini, oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl.
- Mix flour, sugar, toasted pecans, sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Add zucchini mixture and stir to combine. Fill muffin tin cups 3/4 full with batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- While cupcakes bake, cut softened cream cheese and butter into small pieces and place in a mixing bowl. Add sugar and almond extract. Mix icing using an electric mixer until smooth, about 5 minutes. Store in the refrigerator until use.
- Remove cupcakes from the oven and let cool completely before frosting, about 1 hour.

- To make the cupcakes, in a large bowl, mix together the zucchini, egg, sugar, yogurt and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder and baking soda. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture just comes together.
- Evenly divide the cupcake batter between the cupcake liners and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, until a toothpick, when inserted into the center, comes out clean. Leave to cool in the muffin tin on a wire rack.
- To make the frosting, place the avocado in a medium-size bowl and mash it until there are no lumps. (Here's a trick to ripen an avocado fast if yours isn't ripe.) Beat in the cocoa powder and honey until totally combined and the mixture develops a frosting-like consistency. Spoon it on the top of cooled cupcakes and top with sprinkles.
