Yes, I believe I saw some recipes like that when I did a Google search.
Paul.... If you mess up... try.....try again! You're no worse off than when you started, right? We used to have things like Toastmaster's Clubs to build confidence... Ever done anything like that?

Unfortunately, more often than not, we are not the right guy.

The mix of chocolate and roasted coffee is great in a drink, and even better in a dessert treat like chocolate covered coffee beans. These are really easy to make, and are a favorite amongst coffee-lovers. Here are a couple of recipes for you to try.
Recipe #1
* 1/3 cup roasted coffee beans
* 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler until liquid and smooth. Drop in a handful of beans, and stir them around. Scoop them out with a spoon, and set them out on waxed paper. Keep them separate. Continue until all the beans are covered. They will harden overnight, or if you are in a hurry, you can freeze them for about half an hour. Once hard, they won't stick together and can be stored in any air-tight container.
Recipe #2
* 1 cup roasted coffee beans
* 4 oz chocolate pieces
* 3 tbs cocoa powder
Melt the chocolate and cover the beans, using the technique in Recipe #1. Let them harden a little, but not completely. Roll the chocolate beans in the cocoa powder, and then let them finish hardening.
I don't normally recommend flavoured coffees, but they can add a tasty twist to these treats. Try hazelnut or vanilla.
The Cards were never the same after Ozzie Smith retired. :(
Was glad I got to watch him in two separate games. :)
Best catch I've ever seen him catch...line drive between him and 3rd base...he jumped sideways...catches the ball...and lands on his right side...gets up and throws out another runner...simply amazing.
I never heard of Napeolon Dynamite
I really believe the ole adage..."Nice guys finish last."

Every breakup I've had..."You're too nice, I don't deserve you."....Yeah right!...that must be some secret code...one that I haven't cracked yet. :(
Maybe you're attracted to the wrong kind of gal?
French Roast, dripped, is my favorite kind of coffee.
With milk or half and half.
Opening day sure wasn't the same.
Astros win!
If only the Stars had beaten Colorado tonight, we'd be having a perfect sports night here in Texas.
Exactly why it is so hard for me.
I'm in and out - but I'm around.
Getting ready for the Formula 1 race in Japan. Starts in about two hours.

zzzzzzzzz
Naw...I always went for the "girl next door" type...nice and wholesome. /shrugs
I've heard various things regarding sequels...apparently if the movie does well, there will be two sequels.
And if that ends up being set up in a contract, I wonder if it will mean they actually aren't legally allowed to do shows.
NICE!!! Nothing like F1!!! Hope you enjoy the race DD!!! =)
You sound so.... terrific...
;-\
Gwen: It's not you, it's me.
George: You're giving me the "it's not you, it's me" routine? I invented "it's not you, it's me". Nobody tells me it's them not me, if it's anybody it's me.
Gwen: All right, George, it's you.
George: You're d$%# right it's me.
Gwen: I was just trying to...
George: I know what you were trying to do. Nobody does it better than me.
Gwen: I'm sure you do it very well.
George: Yes, well unfortunately you'll never get the chance to find out.
I'm not talking just about looks.....but personalities. What mostly attracted you to them.......beyond the physical?
Sounds great!
