Here's the chocolate torte recipe from Good Housekeeping: 1 Tbsp. GFCF margarine, softened 1/3 cup of Brazil nuts, finely ground (sure most nuts would do fine) 4 egg yolks 4 egg whites 1/2 cup sugar 3 oz. bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted & cooled 1 tsp. coffe crystals 2 Tbsp. hot water Powdered sugar Oven @ 350. Spread margarine in a 9-inch springform pan Sprinkle all but a few tablespoons of nuts on bottom of pan. Beat yolks on high for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in 1/4 cup of the sugar. At low speed, beat in melted chocolate. Dissolve coffee in the water & stir in. In another bowl, beat whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in remaining 1/4 cup sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold this into chocolate yolk mixture. Spread evenly in pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until set. Let cool in pan 15 minutes. Remove. Serve with remaining nuts sprinkled on top with powdered sugar. Also can chill for 24 hours, then serve but allow to stand at room temp. for 15 minutes. NOTE: It was really good & I like alot of nuts so I doubled the nut amount. Lori
Lori Yes, please pot. Hugs, Terry.B
LOL, I don't think that's allowed on this list :)-Shari
Terry B- Sorry can't help you with the "pot". Maybe you could try putting some hashish into the chocolate torte (JUST KIDDING!!!). I don't know if anyone out there is old enough to remember the Barney Miller episode where someone put some hashish in the brownies everyone ate. Lori (who in no way, shape or form is recommending to anyone to use hashish!! Although some days.....)
