Position a rack in the center of the oven and
preheat to 180 centigrade. Line a 9 x 13 inch
pan with two layers of aluminum foil, with the
foil sticking out of the top of the pan by 2
inches. Butter the bottom and sides of the foil.

with the butter and coffee, stirring frequently
til smooth. Remove the pan from the heat. Cool
the mixture for 10 minutes, stir ocasionally.
In a large bowl, using a hand held electric mixer
at high speed to 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 light and fluffy. Reduce the mixer
speed to low and gradually beat in the chocolate
mixture until just blended. Use a wooden spin to
stir in the flour. Stir in the walnuts. Do not
overbeat the mixture.
Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and
spread evenly. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until

will remain moist in the center.
