Tips:
- Use fresh zucchini. Fresh zucchini has a higher moisture content, which makes the bars more moist and tender. If using frozen zucchini, thaw it completely and drain off any excess water before using.
- Grate the zucchini finely. This will help the zucchini blend into the batter more easily and evenly.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bars until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bars are cooked through.
- Let the bars cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
