    Source of Recipe


    Recipe courtesy Ina Pinkney

    List of Ingredients




    1 pound unsalted butter
    1 pound high quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
    1 cup coffee, brewed strong
    8 extra-large eggs
    1 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon vanilla extract

    Recipe



    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.
