    List of Ingredients




    1 (1 lb. 2.25-oz.) pkg. Pillsbury Moist Supreme Yellow Cake Mix

    2 tablespoons oil

    3 eggs

    1 tablespoon water

    2 teapsoons instant coffee granules or crystals

    2 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, melted

    1/2 teaspoon almond extract

    1/2 cup chopped almonds, toasted


    Recipe



    In large bowl, combine cake mix, oil and eggs; mix until well blended.

    In small bowl, combine water and instant coffee; stir until dissolved. Divide dough in half. To half of dough (about 1 1/2 cups), stir in coffee mixture and melted chocolate; mix well. To remaining half of dough, stir in almond extract and almonds; mix well. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours for easier handling.

    Heat oven to 325 F. Grease large cookie sheet. Divide each half of dough in half again; return half of almond dough and half of coffee dough to refrigerator. On well-floured surface with floured hands, pat almond dough into 8x4-inch rectangle. (Dough will be sticky.) Spoon chocolate dough over almond dough, spreading to edges and covering evenly.

    Starting at short side of rectangle, roll up jelly-roll fashion. Roll back and forth on surface to form 14-inch roll. Place on 1 side of greased cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining dough, placing rolls 4 inches apart on cookie sheet.

    Bake at 325 F. for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch. Cool rolls 10 minutes; remove from cookie sheet.

    Slice each roll diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place slices, cut side down, on cookie sheets. Bake at 325 F. for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.

    Turn cookies over; bake an additional 10 minutes or until cookies are golden brown and firm to the touch. Immediately remove from cookie sheets.

    YIELD: 3 1/2 Dozen Cookies
