I love to make these bars every summer when the zucchini from our garden is ready. The cakey bar tastes like coconut cake and is so good!
3/4 c butter or margarine, softened
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 c flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 c shredded zucchini
1 c flaked coconut
Frosting:
2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted
1 tsp vanilla
2-3 Tbsp milk
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add the eggs, beating well. Beat in vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Stir in zucchini and coconut. Spread into a greased 15x10x1" pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 min or til a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
In a bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Stir in butter, vanilla, and enough milk til frosting reaches spreading consistency. Frost cooled bars; cut. Makes about 5 dozen.
