Tips:

  • Use room-temperature ingredients. This will help the batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the squares light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients gradually. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming lumpy.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can toughen the squares.
  • Bake the squares in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that they bake evenly.
  • Let the squares cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

These coffee squares are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are moist, flavorful, and have a delicious coffee flavor. The frosting is also rich and creamy, and it complements the squares perfectly. If you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, these coffee squares are the perfect choice.
