Yield 12-14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound unsalted butter (4 sticks)
1 pound high quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped (2 boxes of Baker's chocolate)
1 cup coffee, brewed strong (make sure you actually meaure out a cup, not just make the cup size you normally make in the morning.)
8 extra-large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the sides and bottom of a 10-inch springform pan and set aside. In the top of a double boiler, combine the butter, chocolate and coffee and melt slowly, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar and vanilla until frothy. Whisk the eggs into the melted chocolate until combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour and cool on a wire rack until it reaches room temperature. Remove the sides of the pan, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, before serving.
