Notes

Mistake: Over-soaking ladyfingers in coffee. Fix: Briefly dip them to keep their structure. Mistake: Skipping the chilling time. Fix: Allow sufficient time for flavors to blend. Mistake: Using low-quality cocoa powder. Fix: Use a high-quality product for better flavor. Pro Tips: Use a mixer for effortless blending, and experiment with flavors by adding liqueur to coffee.
