Steps
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Spray a 22 cm pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Combine beer and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. After the butter is completely melted, whisk in sugar and cocoa powder, and remove from heat to cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs, yoghurt, and vanilla extract. Add the cooled chocolate mixture and combine until smooth.
- In a medium bowl, add flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture and mix until smooth.
- Pour batter into the pan and bake for 45 minutes to one hour, or until a toothpick inserted in center of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool completely on a wire rack.
- For the frosting, add butter, yoghurt, vanilla extract, sugar, milk, and salt to a medium bowl and beat on low speed with a handheld mixer for 2-3 minutes or until the frosting is light and fluffy.
- Decorate the cake with the yoghurt frosting and your favorite decorations.
