Ingredients

Cake Batter

yogurt

6 tbsp

baking soda

0.25 tsp

sugar

6 tbsp

oil

5 tbsp

milk

5 tbsp

whole wheat flour

60 g

cocoa powder

30 g

baking powder

0.5 tsp

Instructions

1

Prepare the yogurt mixture

Whisk yogurt and baking soda together until light, fluffy, and foamy.

1 min
Let mixture sit for a few seconds to activate the baking soda and create a foamy texture.
2

Add wet ingredients

Add sugar, oil, and milk to the yogurt mixture and whisk until combined and sugar begins to dissolve.

2 min
Ensure sugar is mostly dissolved for a smoother batter.
3

Incorporate dry ingredients

Sift flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder into the bowl and gently fold until smooth. Do not over-mix.

2 min
Fold gently to avoid over-mixing, which can make the cake dense.
4

Microwave the cake

Pour batter into a flat-bottomed microwave-safe dish and microwave for 3-4 minutes until the center is soft but set.

4 mintimer 4 min
Check at the 3-minute mark to prevent overcooking.
5

Prepare the ganache

Warm the cream and stir in the chocolate until melted into a smooth, glossy glaze.

2 min
Stir continuously to prevent chocolate from seizing.
6

Finish and serve

Pour warm ganache over the hot cake immediately after microwaving and let rest before serving.

2 min
Pour while cake is hot so ganache seeps into the crumb.
