Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your cake pan. I love lining the bottom with parchment paper to ensure the cake comes out easily. In a mixing bowl, combine the black cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. This combination smells fantastic right from the start, like pure chocolate bliss! In a separate large bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and eggs together until you have a smooth mixture. The creaminess of the yogurt is just divine.
