One of Elizabeth’s favorite Hungarian recipes:  

MOKKA TORTA ( Mocha Cake)

6 eggs, separated

2/3 cups sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

3 tbs all-purpose flour

Filling

1 square Baker’s semi-sweet chocolate

1 tbs instant coffee

1/2 cup of coffee

3/4 cup sweet butter

1 egg

2/3 cup sugar

1tbs vanilla

1 31/2 ounce pkg  blanched almonds

Beat egg whites until stiff; add 2 to 3 tbs of sugar. Cream together egg  yolks, remaining sugar, and lemon juice until lemon colored and fluffy;  fold in egg whites alternately with flour.

Bake in a 9 x16 inch baking pan in a preheated oven at 350 for 10 minute; lower heat to 300  and bake for 20 minutes or until golden.  Cool on a cake rack and cut lengthwise into 3 pieces.

In a saucepan combine chocolate, instant coffee,  for 5 minutes and cool. Cream together butter, egg, sugar, and vanilla; gradually add cooled coffee mixture and beat well. Spread filling between layers and overtop and sides.

Toast  almonds in 1 to 2  tbs sugar on low heat; when brown  remove from flame and stir with a fork until cool so they won’t stick together. Decorate top of the cake with the almonds-they are not only pretty but add to the flavor as well.   Serves 6-8
