½ cup chocolate chips
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix together oil, sugar, brown sugar, honey, vanilla & eggs. In a large bowl, mix together cocoa, flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon, Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Mix the wet ingredients & the coffee into the dry ingredients. Add the chocolate chips. Stir well. Pour into a greased 9x12 pan & sprinkle the top with almonds. Bake for 50 min.
