Finally! Been wanting to try this and see what the huge fuss was about!
Original recipe called for 2 Tbsp coffee… but omg that was waaaay too strong for us! 😖😂😂 Reduced to just one and it was perfect! The candy is just… sugar 😂😂😂 … it was fun to make tho! 🙌🏼🎉
I have no upper body strength 💪🏼🙅🏻♀️ so I had to dig up my mom’s old hand mixer from before I was born 😂 … took less than 3 mins to whip up the coffee! Have you tried it? What are your thoughts?
Ready?
