Cocoa and coffee come together deliciously in these treats preferred by my husband. I like to make extras to tuck in gift baskets for friends and family.

Awesome recipe! A little crunch on the outside and smooth texture inside. I used 2 tsp of espresso powder instead if the instant coffee and they were amazing.
