Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour sifted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons cold brew coffee strongly brewed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • 9x9 inch baking pan
  • Spatula
  • Oven
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line the baking pan with parchment paper or spray with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sifted flour, sugar, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
  3. Add the melted butter, cold brew coffee, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix with a spatula until the dough becomes cohesive and slightly sticky.
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed throughout the dough.
  5. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or your hands to press and spread the dough evenly across the pan's surface.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Remove from oven and cool slightly before cutting into bars.
