    Categories : Chocolate Desserts

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 pound Bittersweet chocolate — finely chopped
    1 cup Unsalted butter — cut into
    1/3 cup Strong brewed coffee
    4 large Eggs — at room temp
    1 1/2 cups Sugar
    1/2 cup Flour
    8 ounces Walnuts — chopped

    Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375~. Line a 9×13″
    baking pan with a doule thickness of aluminum foil so that the line foil
    extends 2″ beyond the sides of the pan. Butter the bottom and sides of the
    foil-lined pan. In the top of a double boiler set over hot, not simmering
    water, melt the chocolate, butter and dissolved coffee, stirring frequently,
    until smooth. Cool the mixture, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes. In a
    large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer set at high speed, beat the eggs
    for 30 seconds, or until foamy.
    Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat for 2 minutes, or until the
    mixture is very light and fluffy. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually
    beat in the chocolate mixture until just blended.
    Using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour. Stir in the walnuts. Do not overbeat
    the mixture. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake for 28-30 minutes,
    or until the foggies are just set around the edges. They will remain moist in
    the center. Cool the foggies in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Cover
    the pan tightly with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnlight or for at least 6
    hours. Remove the top foil and run a sharp knife around the edge of the
    foggies. Using two ends of the foil as handles, lift the foggies onto a large
    plate and peel off the foil. Invert them again onto a smooth surface and cut
    into 16 rectangles.
    Makes 16 foggies.
