Kahlua: The Original Rum & Coffee Liqueur. It ACTS as an ingredient in the chocolate cream layer, adding flavor to the bars. Removing it would change the flavor profile of the bars. Ketel One Vodka: Family Made at the Nolet Distillery. It ACTS as an ingredient in the chocolate cream layer, adding flavor to the bars. Removing it would change the flavor profile of the bars. Oreos: Used to make the crust for the bars. Removing them would mean the bars would not have a crust. Espresso powder: Used in the chocolate cream layer and the mascarpone whipped cream to add espresso flavor. Removing it would change the flavor profile of the bars.

Transcript

Let's take my favorite cocktail and turn it into a rich, creamy, no-bake dessert. These espresso martini bars start with an Oreo crust and then combine a boozy espresso chocolate ganache with a homemade whipped cream. Then to be extra, we top it off with an espresso mascarpone whipped cream. And then finish it with a dusting of cocoa powder and a few espresso beans. These are going to be so good. Wow, everyone who tries them.
