Coffee Squares

Coffee Squares
1/2 cup butter or hard margarine, softened
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose (plain) flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup strong warm coffee
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9x13 inch rectangular baking pan with parchment paper. 
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Beat in the egg. Add remaining ingredients except the chocolate chips. Spread evenly in prepared pan. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes. Cool and cut into squares.

This is a quick and easy recipe I found online. I was looking for a squares recipe that was a bit different, but one made with common ingredients that anyone would love. Of course, the addition of a bit of chocolate makes these squares extra good. The smell of these baking is irresistible! They come out, soft, moist, and tasty  They are a not-too-sweet square that you can just gobble up. They certainly turned out much better than the last squares I made...
