Chocolate And Almond Cake (Gluten Free) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    200 g bittersweet chocolate (organic preferred)
    150 g butter
    150 g icing sugar
    150 g almonds, ground
    6 egg yolks
    6 egg whites, whipped
    1 tablespoon coffee, hot & black
    1 tablespoon rum
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350*. Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt it with the rum and coffee on top of a double boiler.
    Put the butter, almonds and icing sugar into a pan and stir over \"low\" heat until the butter melts and the ingredients are well-mixed. Stir in the chocolate mixture.
    Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the egg yolks thoroughly ( if the mixture is not cool enough the eggs will separate) and then fold in the egg whites.
    Turn into a 9\" springform pan that you have coated with cooking spray. Bake @ 350* for 45-60 minutes. The cake will still be moist in the middle when done, and is very \"fragile\" due to the absence of flour.
