CARAMEL-FROSTED ZUCCHINI BARS



Caramel-frosted Zucchini Bars image

What a delicious way to use up all that summer zucchini! The caramel frosting on these moist bars add so much to this recipe. My frosting set up fast, so I spread and frosted at the same time. You can cut your bars small or large size, I liked mine smaller. My kids really liked this, but I never mention they had zucchini in them! (hehe)!
