This flourless chocolate cake is amazingly rich, delicious, and with five ingredients, quite easy. Dressing it up a bit makes it all the more impressive with out too much more effort. I?m no coffee fan, but the coffee flavor is not too strong. This is sooo rich that the pieces should be fairly small, maybe an inch wide at the crust and can easily serve 20+ people. It is also a great make ahead dessert - store it in the freezer until the day you want to serve it, then defrost in the fridge.
Panache Truffle Cake
Melt in microwave (or double boiler):
8 ounces semi-sweet pure chocolate
1 cup sugar
1 cup unsalted butter (my mom has successfully used salted butter)
When cool stir in:
1/2 cup brewed coffee
Beat in:
4 eggs
Pour batter into a foil lined and heavily buttered 8 1/2 inch spring form pan. Cook at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until a crust forms. Cool to room temp and refrigerate overnight. Remove from pan. Can freeze up to 3 months.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top:
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1/2 ts pure vanilla
To really fancy it up in looks and taste:
1 can frozen sweetened raspberries (thaw and blenderize)
Spoon spread raspberry sauce on individual serving plates before putting a slice on them. And maybe a drop of sauce on top of the whipped cream. The raspberry flavor adds so much to balance out the richness of this dessert.

I just made a new cookie this week, and I swear I've eaten 2 dozen by myself already! They are my new favorite...
They are called "Monster Cookies" and they basically have it all- PB, oatmeal, choc chips, M&M's (I omitted the raisins- too healthy!). mmm....need to go eat another :-)
Monster Cookies Recipe courtesy Donna Haney, as adapted by Paula Deen
Makes 3 dozen:
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (12-ounc) jar creamy peanut butter
1 stick butter, softened
1/2 cup multi-colored chocolate candies
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup raisins, optional
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal (not instant)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats.
In a very large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sugars. Mix well. Add the salt, vanilla, peanut butter, and butter. Mix well. Stir in the chocolate candies, chocolate chips, raisins, if using, baking soda, and oatmeal. Drop by tablespoons 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overbake. Let stand for about 3 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool. When cool, store in large resealable plastic bags.
**They come out kind of soft, so let them sit the couple minutes on the baking sheet. They may look undercooked, but they're not. I baked mine for 9 1/2 minutes, next time I'll just do 9.
