For an even richer flavor, consider using chocolate coffee or adding a tablespoon of instant espresso powder to the brewed coffee. If you don't have toffee bars, chocolate-covered pretzels or other chocolate candies can be substituted. To ensure even layers, you can divide each ingredient into two equal portions before you begin assembling the dessert.
