OMG - these were SO good! Wonderful flavor - I fully expect these to be gone within 24 hours once my kids taste them! I used white chocolate chips since we don't buy butterscotch and I think that may have brought these over the top. I'd already had shredded zucchini, so I used that rather than the chunks. Just amazing - definitely a keeper!

These were very tasty, but my consistency was off. I cooked them a little longer than recommended, but they never completely firmed up. They stayed gooey, which I personally like, so I just ate them with a fork. Also, I did not seed or peel the zucchini, just diced it up. I definitely recommend that - no reason to spend time peeling and seeding.

wow, i am so excited to have found a zucchini recipe that doesn't require grating! i had my doubts about leaving it in chunks, but they melt into wonderful moist cookie-flavored bits--divine! i used 1/4 c smart balance, 3/4 c brown sugar (and i wouldn't want more--they are very sweet). Also, inspired by my Halloween treat bowl I used the following add-ins: 1 T chopped walnuts, 1 T mini-chocolate chips, and 5 mini Heath bars pounded small (just shy of 1/4 c). YUM. Thanks so much for posting!

Definitely tasty - a very good alternative to the traditional desserts using zucchini (cobblers, brownies). It was a nice change of pace and came together very quickly since I didn't need to shred the zucchini. It came out more cake-like than I was expecting, but this could have been due to the type of spread I used (Smart Balance) instead of regular margarine. I did not have any butterscotch chips, so I used chocolate chips with toffee in them. I will use butterscotch next time I make these.
