Chocolate Strawberry Truffle Brownies

Some of the strawberry jam I put up every year makes its way into these brownies. I like to bake up a batch as a special treat for the learning-disabled students I teach. My husband and three sons enjoy them, too. —Teresa Jansen, Advance, Missouri

    Do you have to put the coffee in it? I really dislike coffee.
