Gradually sprinkle in1/2 c. powdered sugar, beating till sugar completely dissolves and whites stand in stiff peaks; set aside. In a large bowl, with mixer at high speed, beat egg yolks till they are thick and lemon-colored. Reduce speed to low; add in the almond extract,1/2 c. powdered sugar and 3 Tbsp. cocoa; beat till well-mixed, occasionally scraping bowl. With rubber spatula or possibly wire whisk, gently fold beaten egg whites into egg-yolk mix, a third at a time. Spoon batter into the jellyroll pan, spreading proportionately. Bake 15 min or possibly till top of cake springs back when lightly touched with finger. Sprinkle a clean cloth dish towel with cocoa. When cake is done, immediately invert cake onto towel.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, lowfat milk and vanilla till fluffy. Beat in remaining 1/3 c. powdered sugar. Stir in grated chocolate.
