--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      lb            Bittersweet chocolate --
                        - finely chopped
   1      c             Unsalted butter -- cut up
     1/3  c             Strong brewed coffee
   4      lg            Eggs -- at room temperature
   1 1/2  c             Sugar
     1/2  c             Flour
   8      oz            Walnuts -- chopped

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375°F. Line
a 9x13" 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 to 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 oven light 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.

Yield: 16 Foggies
