The secret to a moist mid-week cake lies in plain yogurt

Yogourt Cake with Chocolate Ganache Icing Recipe - LeGourmetTV · 3:50 · Video: Glen And Friends Cooking · Watch at the source

In short: Discover how to balance a decadent chocolate ganache with a super moist, easy-to-make yogurt cake. This guide breaks down the precise techniques for a rich, home-baked treat.

The recipe utilizes 1.5 cups of plain yogurt to achieve a moist crumb, balanced by a rich coating of semisweet chocolate ganache. The process involves creaming sugar and butter before incorporating eggs, yogurt, and vanilla, followed by a dry mix of flour, baking powder, and baking soda.

A key technical step is the ganache preparation: simmering cream and whisking in chopped chocolate and corn syrup. The icing requires a specific cooling period—refrigerated for about 45 minutes with stirs every 10 minutes—to reach a texture that is firm but not hard.
