- line a 9" x 13" tin with foil and oil it with vegetable oil
- separate the eggs and beat the yolks with the sugar until light and ropey
- put the chocolate, coffee and boiling water in a bowl and microwave until liquid
- beat the egg whites until stiff
- stir the chocolate into the egg yolk mixture (slow speed on kenwood)
- fold in the egg whites
- bake for 12-14 minutes at 180 C
