Ingredients

1 pint heavy cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon strong brewed coffee (or 1 teaspoon instant espresso dissolved in 1 Tablespoon of water)
1 teaspoon brandy or vanilla extract
1 package chocolate wafer cookies
approximately 1/3 to 1/2 cup Love’n Bake™ Hazelnut Praline

Instructions

Whip the cream in the bowl of a mixer until it holds soft peaks. Scrape the bowl and add the powdered sugar, coffee and brandy. Whip another few seconds until the cream is coffee-colored and holds stiff peaks. 

 To assemble the cake, working in batches of 10 cookies, spread one side of each cookie with a small amount of Love’n Bake™ Hazelnut Praline. Spread one to 2 tablespoons of coffee-flavored whipped cream on top of the Hazelnut Praline. Stack the wafers into a small pile. Fill in any gaps between the wafers with more coffee cream. Repeat with the remaining wafers, Hazelnut Praline and coffee cream until there are 4 stacks. 

 Lay the stacks of hazelnut and coffee-cream-filled cookies on their sides in parallel rows touching each other. Frost the “cake” generously with the remaining coffee cream, filling in all the gaps to make a neat rectangular cake. Refrigerate overnight. 

 Garnish the cake with grated chocolate and chocolate covered coffee beans. Slice on the diagonal when serving

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
