In the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stir chocolate, oil, salt and coffee until melted. Pour chocolate mixture into the large bowl of an electric mixer. Add sugar, egg, cream, baking soda, vanilla and vinegar. Beat on medium speed until blended. Add flour. Beat for 3 to 4 minutes. Occasionally scrape sides of bowl with a rubber spatula. Stir in 1/2 cup of the walnuts. Pour cake batter into prepared pan and set in lower third of oven. Bake at 350 F for 35 to 40 minutes or until cake begins to pull from sides of pan. Cool in pan on rack for 30 minutes. Remove from pan and set on rack over a piece of waxed paper. Slowly pour glaze over cake so it flows over top and sides in an even layer. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts.
