Greek Yogurt Chocolate Cake!

an’t wait to make this healthy and yummy greek yogurt chocolate cake recipe that I found at neverhomemaker.

Ingredients

1/4 plus 1/8 cup dark cocoa powder (Dutch-process)
1/4 plus 1/8 cup hot water
1-1/2 cups wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda, banking powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup canola oil
1 plus 1/8 cup natural sugar (I used Sugar in the Raw)
Egg replacer for TWO eggs (I used Bob’s Red Mill egg replacer)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup OIKOS Greek yogurt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 by 13 inch pan and dust with flour (for easy cake removal later).
Whisk together the cocoa powder and hot water in a small bowl.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, use the whisk attachment to blend the oil and sugar. Turn the powder to medium-low and add in the egg replacer. Then stir in the vanilla and cocoa mixture.
Reduce speed to low. Add half of the flour mixture. When that’s well combined, add half the Greek yogurt. Add the other half of the flour. Then the other half of the yogurt. Mix until JUST combined.
Pour into your cake pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 30 minutes, rotating halfway through. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake.
Let cool completely before frosting.

For the frosting:

6 ounces OIKOS Greek yogurt (plain will do)
1 Tbsp vanilla
1/2 cup MaraNatha dark chocolate almond spread (or regular peanut or almond butter)
3/4 cup powdered sugar

Directions

Whisk the yogurt, almond butter and vanilla until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Add the powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time — whisking until well incorporated.
When cake has cooled — frost. Then keep it in the fridge for freshness. Top with Newman-Os, etc. for fun.
