It's more of a heads up not to use instant coffee, which is often called for in baking. Yes. It’s more of a heads up not to use instant coffee, which is often called for in baking.

Just a quick question - is "prepared coffee" coffee? As in the liquid, after you've brewed it? These look delicious! Just a quick question – is “prepared coffee” coffee?

So instead of buying a gift, I tried your truffle recipe. Frangelico was a little expensive, so I substituted it for Amaretto. They turned out perfect! Thank you for all the terrific recipes!

The tuffles taste grate! The problem is that they are never hard enough, even straight from the freezer, when I peeled them from the parchment paper. About 2 thirds of them I coated in melted chocolate like in your link to the Robert Linxe’s truffles, or your other truffles from this site. They set beautifully and made a grate gifts. But coating them at 1 AM I said enough at some point, and about 1/3 of them just took a bath in the cocoa powder and went to the fridge. They hold their shape, but just to the point that you try to pick one up. Any ideas (except for going back to coating them in chocolate over the cocoa)? Hi Deb and Happy New Year.
