Time 5h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup white sugar
2 cups butter
1 cup water
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
1 pound semisweet chocolate, chopped
8 eggs
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
16 whole almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and wrap bottom with aluminum foil.
  • Heat 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 eggs in a separate bowl; gradually pour in the chocolate mixture, whisking constantly. The batter will be very thin. Transfer batter to prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely. Remove sides of pan. Cover cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours.
  • Remove plastic wrap. Beat whipping cream and confectioners' sugar in a chilled 1 1/2 quart bowl until stiff. Garnish top of cake with whipped cream and, if desired, whole almonds. Refrigerate any remaining cake.

I had some trouble making this cake. The mousse was difficult to get smooth, and the cake was a little dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste. I think it would be better with a less sweet mousse and a more bitter chocolate ganache.

This cake was a little too rich for my taste. The mousse was very heavy, and the cake was very dense. I think it would be better with a lighter mousse and a more airy cake.
