I made one similar to that one last nightI used brownies and add 1 tbsp of instant (dry) coffee to the brownie mix then baked up the brownies. Then I made the choc pudding with 1/2 cup Kaluha and 1 1/2 cp milk and mixed in 1 8oz tub of whipped cream. I layered it with the brownie the pudding mixture and toffee pieces. I cant wait to dig in tonight!!

Wow, this sounds amazing! I love chocolate and coffee together, so the addition of Kahlua is perfect. And the toffee bars just take it to the next level. I can't wait to try this recipe, thank you for sharing it!
