My eldest son Muaz is returning to his hostel this evening so I decided to bake a cake for him to eat with his friends later. I happened to buy a box of yogurt so I chose to do this recipe.
And I am very happy I did. It was so simple preparing the batter and the cake turned out so soft,fluffy and moist! Definately will do it again. Highly reccomended!I got it here.
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Dutch processed cocoa(I just used local cocoa)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup Dutched processed cocoa (I just used local cocoa)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick), softened
1.5 cups sugar
2 eggs
1.5 cups plain yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. Mix 1 tablespoon of flour with 1 teaspoon of cocoa and dust inside of a greased 9-inch bundt or tube pan with this mixture, shaking out any excess.
2. Sift 2 cups of flour and 2/3 cup of cocoa together with the baking soda; set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together.Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
4. Add the flour mixture, alternatively with the yogurt, in three parts.Do not overmix.
5. Stir in the vanilla.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.I used a bundt pan.
7. Bake in a preheated 175c oven for 45 to 55 minutes, until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a rack to cool completely.
You can serve it with seived icing sugar or pour chocolate ganache over it.
