Chocolate chip squares are a very popular dessert that has found its place in numerous Latin American kitchens. Originating in the United States, these squares consist of a cookie-like base covered with a light meringue and chocolate chips that provide an irresistible touch. In different Latin American countries, they may have various names or be adapted with local ingredients, although the sweet essence and creamy texture remain intact.
In Mexico, for example, they might be known simply as "chocolate chip bars," while in countries like Argentina and Chile they might be called "sweet squares" or "chocolate meringue bars." This recipe is ideal for those who enjoy a homemade dessert that combines the softness of meringue with the intense flavor of chocolate chips distributed over a firm and delicious base.
