Detailed Directions and Instructions
Prepare the Baking Pan
Grease a 9-inch round cake pan thoroughly with butter or oil, and line the bottom with parchment paper for easier removal after baking.
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, mix together sugar, Nutella, and yogurt. Stir in the vanilla extract and then slowly add the milk to create a smooth mixture.
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be smooth and thick.
Pour the Batter
Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake the Cake
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake the cake for 30-35 minutes. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake; it should come out clean.
Cool the Cake
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting (Optional)
If desired, prepare a simple frosting using whipped cream or additional Nutella to spread over the cooled cake for extra flavor.
Notes
Storage
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
Variations
You can add nuts or chocolate chips to the batter for added texture and flavor. Adjust the amount of Nutella for a richer taste.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent dessert experience.
