Easter Chocolate Cake
75g super soft butter
150g soft light brown sugar
2 small eggs
110g Greek yogurt
180g plain flour
1 level tsp bread soda
1 tbsp cocoa powder
For the ganache icing:
200ml double cream
50g dark chocolate
50g milk chocolate
To Serve – a couple of packs of Mini Eggs (or similar) – there’ll be no shortage of chocolate mini eggs of all sizes in the shops these weeks!
Preheat the oven to 170. Butter & line a 9-inch round tin with baking paper.
Cream the butter & sugar until light & fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time beating well in between. Fold through the Greek yogurt.
Sieve the dry ingredients – flour, bread soda & cocoa powder into a bowl & fold into the mixture. Make sure you fold it gently but that everything is well combined too.
Pour into the prepared tin & bake for 25 / 30 mins until the sides are coming away from the tin & a skewer inserted comes out clean. Leave to cool completely before transferring to a wire rack.
To make the ganache, break up the chocolate & pop it into a heat proof bowl.
Pop the double cream into a small pot & bring to the boil. Stand over it as it’ll only take a couples of mins. When it’s coming to a rolling boil take it off the heat & pour it all over the chocolate – mix it up with a small whisk to melt the chocolate.
Pop the cake onto a serving plate & pour the ganache all over letting it drip down the sides.
Bash the mini eggs up in a Ziploc bag to break them up a bit. Then scatter all over your dreamy chocolate cake & serve it! Make sure you get the biggest slice!
Something Extra…
Why not pop the zest of an orange into the base recipe for a Chocolate Orange Cake if you fancy it! Yumster!!
