Honest to Goodness
Decadent Dark Chocolate Cake (Gluten Free)
Ingredients
200g of Dark Chocolate
6 eggs
310g Raw Sugar
150g Blanched Almond Meal
1 tsp ground coffee (fresh if possible)

To serve
1/4 cup Icing Sugar
1/4 cup Cocoa Powder

Method
Line a spring form cake tin with baking paper and preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius. Break up and melt the dark chocolate in a bain marie. Separate 5 of the eggs, and whisk together 5 egg yolks with 1 whole egg. Then add the sugar and combine until the mixture is creamy. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Add the almond meal, ground coffee & melted chocolate to the egg yolk and sugar mixture and mix well.
Gently fold in the egg whites and pour mixture into lined springform tin.

Bake for 1 hour until skewer comes out clean. If the cake looks to be turning too dark, cover with foil after 40 mins.
When cooked, take out of oven and leave on wire rack to cool in tin for 10 mins. Remove from tin and allow to finish cooling.
When cool put the cocoa powder & icing sugar into a sieve and sprinkle on top.
