This Melitta Mocha Fudge Cake is a classic recipe from Canada, originally published in 1996 by the coffee company Melitta. What makes this cake unique is its use of coffee, which gives it a deep, rich flavor that pairs perfectly with the semisweet chocolate. This recipe is also flourless and gluten-free, making it a great option for those with dietary restrictions. Serve it at your next special occasion or enjoy a slice with a cup of coffee for a decadent dessert treat.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C) and line a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with parchment paper.
2.	In a double boiler or using a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, melt the chocolate and butter together.
3.	Stir in the sugar and coffee until well combined.
4.	In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together, then gradually whisk in the chocolate mixture until smooth.
5.	Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
6.	Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
7.	Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then remove the sides of the springform pan and let it cool completely. Serve topped with whipped cream, if desired.
