Ingredients

  • ounces semisweet chocolate (use a good brand)
  • 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
  • 1/2 lb butter
  • cup sugar
  • 4 egg, beaten
  • cup heavy cream
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Preheat oven to 350°.
    2. 2
      Line a glass loaf pan w/foil; butter the foil.
    3. 3
      In the top of a double boiler, melt the chocolate in the coffee.
    4. 4
      Add the butter& sugar, stirring until the butter is melted.
    5. 5
      Cool the mixture for 10 minutes.
    6. 6
      Beat in the eggs 1 at a time.
    7. 7
      Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan.
    8. 8
      Bake until a crust forms on top, approximately 35-45 minutes.
    9. 9
      Let cool slightly then set the loaf pan in enough cool water to come halfway up the pan.
    10. 10
      Make sure the water isn't cold, it could crack your pan.
    11. 11
      I usually have it a little warmer than"luke warm" for a minute or so, then dump that water and use cool.
    12. 12
      So far that has worked for me.
    13. 13
      The dessert will rise& fall as it cools.
    14. 14
      When cool, wrap the pan well in foil& refrigerate for at least 2 days or up to 2 weeks.
    15. 15
      When ready to serve, beat the cream until stiff (can flavor with 2-3 tsp brandy, but I just used vanilla& a little sugar).
    16. 16
      Unmold the loaf& slice.
    17. 17
      Garnish w/cream.

    This was ok, but not what I expected. I'm not a coffee drinker, and the flavor really came through in my opinion. I may try this again, finding something else to sub for the coffee.

    Oh my! Oh my! Well, I knew it was in the fridge, and I just could not wait another day! (We lasted 1.5 days of refrigeration.) It was wonderful.....hard to describe, not cake, not pudding, more like a slice of chocolate truffle....a keeper and then some! It was rich, but not overly so, perfect!

    My MIL has made this recipe on several occasions. It is creamy and delicious and I have to say, it is one of the best tasting chocolate desserts that I have ever tasted. Even though it is very rich, it is so good that I've wanted to eat the whole thing by myself.
