Nestle Chocolate Chip Squares

Just sharing another old classic recipe....Nestle chocolate chip bars. My mom always bought Nestle brand, which are also a favorite of mine.

 This simple recipe always turns out perfect, and is a lot quicker to make than the cookies. We used to throw a pan in the oven for unexpected company, sleepovers, bake sales, whenever we needed something fast. They are always a crowd pleaser.

I think they taste best the day you make them, still warm and gooey, of course. I under bake them just a bit, so they stay nice and soft.

I made this pan for church, but we did sneak a few before I packed them up!
