Preparation

Step 1


1.Lightly oil two 6'' round spring form cake pans, line their bottoms with parchment paper and set aside.
2.Preheat oven to 350F.
3.Beat eggs and sugar until creamy.
4.Add in oil and yogurt. Mix well.
5.Gradually sift the flour directly into the mixing bowl and mix just until combined.
6.Add in cocoa powder, baking powder and vanilla powder. Stir well. Don’t overmix the batter, just until everything is combined.
7.Divide the batter into two pans and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8.Remove them from oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then remove them from pans. Allow them to cool completely on a cooling rack.
9.Meanwhile prepare the chocolate ganache.
10.Put chocolate chips in a bowl.
11.Heat the heavy cream just until it boils and pour it over the chocolate chips. Wait for 2 minutes and stir until smooth.
12.Let it reach to room temperature.
13.Spread ¼ of your chocolate ganache on the first cake. Wait for about 10 minutes so that the ganache sets a bit.
14.Slice ½ cup of strawberries lengthwise and place them on the chocolate ganache.
15.Carefully place the second cake on the strawberries, gently press on it just to help it set.
16.Pour the rest of the ganache over it. Wait about 10 minutes and then place the rest of the strawberries on the top.
