Scorrere verso il basso

Today’s recipe is for a soft, moist and delicious chocolate yogurt cake. The recipe is very easy and requires simple ingredients. The batter is super quick to prepare. It is important not to overmix the ingredients. The longer you mix, the firmer the batter will become. You can fill it with a cream or decorate it with chocolate ganache. I added several almonds to give it a little more crunch. This cake stays fresh for several days and is excellent for breakfast or a snack for for different occasions.

  • Heat the whipping cream in a small saucepan. Add chopped dark chocolate and stir to make it melt completely. Cover the cake with the prepared glaze.
  • The almond decorations are prepared by dipping each almond in some melted chocolate and then dipping it in the crumbs of chopped almonds.
  • Once you have decorated the cake you can serve it immediately with the glaze while it is still soft or wait a few hours until it becomes firm.
