zucchini cream cheese bars

So, I have zucchini coming out of my ears. I got a book called Zucchini Houdini from the Logan Library and have tried a couple of recipes. My favorite one so far is zucchini cream cheese bars. I thought I'd share the recipe.

Zucchini Cream Cheese Bars

Ingredients:

3 eggs

2 cups sugar

1 cup oil

2 cups grated zucchini

3 tsp. vanilla

2 1/2 cups flour

1/4 tsp salt

2 tsp baking soda

Beat together eggs, sugar, and oil. Add zucchini and vanilla. Mix together dry ingredients and then combine with zucchini mixture. Mix until combined well. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13 baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes (unless it's my oven, then it seemed like a lot more than 25 minutes!) or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool.

Frosting:

1/2 cup butter, softened

3 oz. cream cheese

1 tsp. vanilla

2 1/2 cups powdered sugar

milk as needed

Combine butter and cream cheese and beat until light. Add vanilla and powdered sugar. Beat until fluffy, adding a slight amount of milk for consistency. Frost the bars when they are completely cool.
