So I followed the recipe exact with two exceptions 1) I don't use hydrogenated fats so I used earth balance instead, 7 tbs instead of 6, I think I'll use 8 next time as they weren't as fudgy/gooey as I like but I fully believe that is because I should have baked them for 25 instead of the 30 only because I don't use margarine and the water in the E.B. baked off too much.2) i used instant coffee, 2 teaspoons, divine! other than that I will play around with this recipe. I love it!
