Ingredients

3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
1/3 cup margarine, softened
1/3 cup matzo cake meal
1/3 cup ground almonds
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules or crystals
1 tablespoon water
2 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
2 tablespoons currant or apple jelly, melted

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. Line 9-inch round cake pan with waxed paper or parchment paper; grease paper with shortening or cooking spray.
In medium bowl, beat sugar, cocoa and margarine with spoon until well blended. Stir in cake meal, almonds, instant coffee and water until smooth (batter will be thick).
In small bowl, beat egg whites with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold into chocolate mixture until well blended. Spread mixture evenly in pan.

Just before serving, place torte on serving plate. Top with sliced strawberries; brush with melted jelly. Store covered in refrigerator.
