Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup butter
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 16 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon confectioners sugar
Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C). Grease one 9" (23 cm) springform pan.
2 Heat white sugar, butter, water, coffee and chocolate in a 3-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth; remove from heat. Beat in the eggs and pour into the prepared pan. Batter is very thin. If side and bottom of pan do not fit tightly, line the pan with foil.

4 Remove plastic wrap. Beat whipping cream and confectioners' sugar in a chilled 1= quart bowl until stiff. Garnish top of cake with whipped cream and, if desired, whole almonds. Refrigerate any remaining cake
