• HEAT heavy cream in 1-quart saucepan over medium-low heat until hot. Stir in coffee. With wire whisk, stir in chocolate chips until smooth. Remove from heat. Place 1/4 cup chocolate mixture in small microwave-safe bowl; set aside for drizzle. Pour and carefully spread remaining chocolate mixture over crust. Freeze 20 minutes.
• HEAT oven to 325 degrees F. Mix brownie mix, 6 tablespoons melted butter and water in large bowl; beat 50 strokes with spoon (mixture will be thick). In small bowl, beat egg whites with electric mixer on high speed 1 to 2 minutes or until soft peaks form. Add to brownie mixture; beat with electric mixer on low speed just until blended, about 30 seconds (batter will appear lumpy).
• REMOVE crust from freezer. Spread batter over chocolate layer. Sprinkle almonds evenly over top.
• BAKE 45 to 60 minutes or until center is puffed and set and edges are firm (middle will be soft). DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool on wire rack 2 hours.

• Tip: To toast chopped almonds, spread on cookie sheet; bake at 325 degrees F. for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring once, until light golden brown.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. The butter will separate into melted golden fat and white, grainy milk solids. Cook until the milk solids turn golden brown and the mixture smells like toasted nuts, making "beurre noisette". Strain through a fine sieve to remove the milk solids.
• Sift the dry ingredients together and place in a mixer fitted with a whip attachment. Add the egg whites, applesauce and strained beurre noisette and mix. The batter can be made to this point up to 3 days in advance. Keep refrigerated. When ready to bake, butter tiny rectangular or round tart molds and cut the blackberries in half, top to bottom. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Transfer the batter to a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip and pipe into the prepared molds. Place 1/2 of a blackberry in the center of each mold, cut side down. Bake for 10 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool in the molds, then gently lift the cakes out. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare brownies according to box, however pour the mix into two round 8 by 8 cake pans. Make sure you grease the pans, and bake according to box. (Use the time that is on the box for the 8 by 8 pans) The mix isn't supposed to fill the pans completely, just about halfway.
• After taking out the brownies, and letting them cool completely, you can start the whipped filling. Begin by setting a large bowl and the beaters into your freezer for a couple of minutes.
