Chocolate cake with almonds

Preheat the oven to 175 °C. It is not necessary to grease the pan because its non-stick is very powerful, but if you prefer, you can grease it lightly. Reserve. Melt the chocolate and coffee in a bowl in the microwave at 30-second intervals, mixing well each time until completely melted.
