Heat oven to 350℉ (180℃).

In small bowl, stir together ⅓ cup cocoa and water until mixture is smooth.
Stir in butter and vanilla; cool.
In large bowl, combine egg yolks and ½ cup sugar; beat on medium speed of electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
Add chocolate mixture and almonds, beating until well blended.
In another large bowl, beat egg whites until foamy.
Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
Fold ¼ egg white mixture into chocolate mixture.
