- In a small sauce pan combine the butter and cocoa over medium heat on the stovetop.
- Heat stirring often until the butter is melted and the chocolate has mixed well (about 5 minutes).
- While this is heating, mix together in a medium sized bowl the sugar, eggs, vanilla, almond and espresso powder.
- Once the butter is melted, temper the egg mix in the usual method (see tips and tricks) and then combine everything until a smooth filling is developed.
