First thing to do is set the Crop tool aspect ratio to 1:1

Then drag out one of the corners while holding down the Alt (Opt) key expanding the crop tool boundery outside the original border.

You can fill the background with a color of your choice, but if you set the Fill option to Generative Expand in the Options Bar, Photoshop will do an amazing job of filling in the addition canvas.
