Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the summer squash, cake mix, water and oil, until relatively smooth (about 2-3 minutes). Stir in chocolate chips.

Line 24 muffin cups with cupcake liners.
4

Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, making sure to include chocolate in each one.

Cook the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 20-24 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Allow the cupcakes to cool completely, then frost generously with your favorite frosting. Top with crushed almonds.
