Directions:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Generously spread margarine over the bottom and 1-1/2 inches up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Reserve 1 or 2 tablespoons of the ground nuts. Set aside. Sprinkle remaining nuts evenly in pan.
- 2. In a medium mixing bowl beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes or until thick and lemon-colored.
- 3. Gradually beat in 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar until eggs are slightly thickened. At low speed, beat in the melted chocolate. Dissolve instant espresso or coffee crystals in the 2 tablespoons of hot water. Stir into chocolate mixture.
- 4. In a large mixing bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into yolk mixture. Spread evenly in springform pan.
- 5. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until set. Cool on wire rack 15 minutes. (Center will dip on cooling and crust edges will be crumbly.)
- 6. Using a thin metal spatula, loosen torte from the sides of the pan. Remove sides of the pan; cool torte completely. Serve immediately or cover and chill for up to 24 hours. If chilled, allow torte to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
- 7. To serve, cut torte into wedges and place on dessert plates. Sift powdered sugar and sprinkle reserved ground nuts over each serving. Garnish with chocolate curls. Makes 10 servings.
