Description

These irresistible butterscotch zucchini bars are a moist, chewy, and fudgy dessert perfect for any occasion. Easy to make and packed with delicious butterscotch flavor, they are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium)
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This step is key for moist butterscotch zucchini bars.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the grated zucchini and the butterscotch chips to create your irresistible butterscotch zucchini bars.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For fudgy butterscotch zucchini bars, err on the side of slightly underbaking.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • Ensure your zucchini is well-drained of excess moisture for the best texture in your butterscotch zucchini bars.
  • For chewier bars, bake for a shorter time. For cake-like bars, bake a few minutes longer.
  • Store leftover irresistible butterscotch zucchini bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
