Yes, it's true I baked a cake and it's my first flourless cake.
Do you ever read the magazines that are in the seat backs on the airplane? Well, Liat Airlines has a Caribbean Magazine in their seat backs called Zing Live Life To The Full and on the last flight we where on Eric pulled out this Chocolate Coffee Sin Cake recipe. Since our new kitchen is so wonderful and it happened to be our friend Kim's birthday I baked. Wow, is it good!!!

6oz chopped chocolate
6 tbsp butter
3 tbsp brewed coffee
2 tbsp Mount Gay Eclipse Rum
1/2 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup sugar
