Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch cake pan and set aside.
• For the batter: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cocoa powder. Add the walnuts. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, butter and chopped chocolate, stirring until the butter and chocolate have just melted.
• Remove from the heat, then add the chocolate mixture to the dry ingredients, add the vanilla extract and egg and mix thoroughly to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
• For the topping: In a small saucepan over high heat, combine the sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder and coffee, and bring it to a boil while whisking constantly until the mixture is smooth.
• Pour the liquid over the cake batter.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the cake is set in the middle; the pudding may be visible around the edges.
• Spoon the pudding cake into individual bowls and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking pan. Line with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.
• Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 4 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy, scraping down the bowl. On medium speed, add the vanilla, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated and the batter is smooth.
• Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. In another bowl or a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the hot water, cocoa powder, and espresso powder until smooth. Add the half-and-half and whisk until smooth. With the mixer on low, add the flour and chocolate mixtures alternately in thirds, starting and ending with the flour. With a rubber spatula, scrape down the bowl to be sure the batter is well mixed.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely in the pan. Turn out onto a flat platter or board and frost the top with the Mocha Frosting. Cut in squares and serve.
• Place the chocolate, butter, and espresso powder in a bowl. Heat the cream to simmer and pour it over the chocolate mixture, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted. (If the chocolate isn't melted, microwave the mixture for 15 seconds.) Stir in the Kahlua and vanilla and stir until the mixture is smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes only, until cool but not cold.
• Scrape down the bowl and beat the frosting with a handheld mixer on high speed for 15 to 20 seconds only, until the mixture forms soft peaks. (If you overbeat it, it will curdle!) Spread on the cake immediately with a metal spatula.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly butter a 9-inch springform pan. For the cake: Sift the flour, cocoa, and baking powder together. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture is pale in color. Stir in the butter. Fold in the dry ingredients and mix until thoroughly incorporated. In an electric mixer, beat the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Fold the white into the chocolate mixture. Pour the batter into the springform pan and bake for 35 minutes. Allow the cake to cool and remove the sides of the pan. Slice the cake into 4 equal layers. Leave the bottom layer in the pan and reattach the sides of the pan. For the pudding: Melt chocolate in a double boiler. Remove the double boiler from the heat and whisk in the egg yolks. In a sauce pan, bring the cream and sugar up to a boil. Whisk the cream into the chocolate mixture. Fold in the pecans and vanilla. Spread a quarter of the chocolate pudding over the first layer and top with another layer of the cake. Continue to layer the pudding and cake until the cake is completed. Let the cake sit for 2 to 3 hours to allow the cake to absorb the pudding. For the sauce: In a sauce pan, bring the cream and Tia Maria to a boil with the vanilla bean. Cover the pan and remove from the heat, and set aside to infuse the cream for 15 minutes. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs while gradually adding the sugar. Whisk the cream into the egg mixture. Pour back into the sauce pan and bring the sauce up to a simmer. Cook the sauce until it coats the back of the spoon, about 8-10 minutes. Strain and cool. Whisk in the coffee. Spoon the sauce in the middle of the plate. Place a piece of the cake in the center of the sauce. Garnish with the whipped cream, powdered sugar, and broken chocolate pieces.

Steps:

• Whisk the egg yolks and 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur in a medium bowl. Whisk the milk, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk about 1/2 cup of the hot milk mixture into the beaten eggs, then whisk the egg mixture into the remaining milk in the pan. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until thickened, about 5 minutes (the whisk should leave a thick trail when dragged). Remove from the heat. Add the chopped chocolate and whisk until smooth, then whisk in the butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
• Divide the pudding among 4 ramekins or small bowls. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of each and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Whisk the heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon coffee liqueur and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and whisk until combined. Top the pudding with the whipped cream and chocolate-covered espresso beans.

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Butter a metal 8-inch square cake pan. Line the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper; lightly butter the parchment. Combine the cocoa and espresso powders in a medium bowl. Heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until the milk is steaming and the butter melts. Whisk into the cocoa mixture; let cool to room temperature.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until very pale, thick and pillowy, 5 to 8 minutes. Beat 30 to 45 more seconds to stabilize the egg foam.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the cocoa mixture in 2 additions, alternating with the flour mixture in 2 additions. Beat just until the batter is smooth and no dry flour remains.
• Pour the batter into the cake pan and gently tap against the counter to eliminate any air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out the cake onto a rack. Peel off the parchment but let it rest gently on top of the cake while it cools completely. Wipe the cake pan clean and reserve.
• Make the ganache: Combine 1/2 cup heavy cream, 4 ounces chocolate and 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan. Gently cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until melted and smooth. Let cool.
• Make the mousse: Combine the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and 4 ounces chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted and smooth. Whisk in the cocoa powder until smooth. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine 1/4 cup heavy cream and the gelatin powder in a small microwave- safe bowl. Let stand until the gelatin absorbs the liquid, about 5 minutes, then microwave until melted, 20 to 30 seconds, whisking. Let cool, stirring occasionally.
• Combine the remaining 1 1/4 cups heavy cream, the sugar and espresso powder in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed to dissolve the sugar, about 1 minute. Stream in the cooled gelatin mixture, then increase the speed to medium high and beat until the mixture is thick and stiff peaks form. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture in 2 or 3 batches until the mousse is well blended.
• Assemble the cake: Line the reserved cake pan with 2 crisscrossed strips of parchment paper (this will help you lift out the finished cake). Carefully slice the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. Lay the best layer cut-side up in the bottom of the pan and brush with some of the chocolate liqueur, if using. (Use a plate or small cutting board to move the layers; if your top cake layer is domed, use it for the middle of the cake.) Evenly spread half of the mousse on top with an offset spatula, all the way to the edges. Top with a second cake layer. Brush again with chocolate liqueur, then spread half of the ganache evenly on top. Add the final cake layer, cut-side up, and brush with the remaining liqueur. Top with the remaining mousse and ganache. (The assembled cake should fill the pan.)
• Refrigerate the cake until the top is set, about 30 minutes, then wrap the whole cake pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to set completely.
• Lift the cake out of the pan using the parchment pieces and transfer to a cutting board. Using a hot, dry serrated knife, slice the cake, wiping the knife in between cuts for clean edges.
