Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, oil, sugar and vanilla until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; stir into the sugar mixture. Mix in the zucchini. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • To make the frosting, blend together the margarine, cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spread over warm cake. Allow cake to cool completely before cutting into bars.
