Please tell me you've visited Julia over at Dozen Flours. Her blog is full of the most beautiful, mouth-watering concoctions. She makes a lot for her co-workers and I'm pretty sure there's a LONG, LONG waiting list to work at that place.
A few months ago, Julia posted a Triple-Decker Chocolate, Toffee, Coffee Cheesecake. I knew it would be the perfect dessert to make for my husband. So, this was our/his Father's Day dessert.
Please forgive my not-so-great pictures. They don't do the cheesecake justice. It was wonderful...creamy and decadent. I followed Julia's instructions to the letter with 2 small exceptions:
- I didn't have instant coffee on hand, so I used instant espresso and cut the amount in half.
- I topped our slices with toffee pieces because I was too lazy to whip the cream and make chocolate shavings. :)
{Here's a picture from day 2, I managed to cut it a little bit cleaner...still, Julia's pictures are better. }
It was a hit. If you like this flavor combination, you'll love this cheesecake! Thank you, Julia!!!
