The Best Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Ganache

INGREDIENTS:
Chocolate Cake

• 1 large egg
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 6 ounces plain, vanilla, or chocolate yogurt (thicker Greek-style preferred, do not use diet, fat-free or light yogurt; sour cream may be substituted)
• 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup brewed coffee, room temperature or warm
• 1/2 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Chocolate Ganache

• 9 ounces semi-sweet chocolate (about 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips)
• 3/4 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or optionally use 1 to 2 tablespoons rum, bourbon, coffee-, orange-, raspberry-, chocolate-flavored liqueur)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Cake – Preheat oven to 350° F.  Line a 9-by-9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray, or grease and flour the pan; set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl combine egg, sugar, yogurt, oil, vanilla, and whisk until smooth and combined. Add coffee, cocoa powder (I used Hershey’s), and whisk vigorously until batter is smooth and free from lumps.
