Original Recipe Yield 12 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup hot, strong brewed coffee
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • GLAZE:
  • 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 teaspoons milk

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and brown sugar. Add egg; beat well. Beat in coffee. Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture.
  2. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts. Spread into a well-greased 8-in. square baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve a glaze consistency. Drizzle over warm bars. Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting.
