Measure the ingredients. Sift the dry ingredients together then place in a work bowl.

Add the sugar to the work bowl and stir with a whisk to mix well. Place the butter and yogurt in a saucepan.

Place the saucepan on the stove and heat on low until the butter is melted.  Do not boil.  Remove from the heat and add the cocoa powder.  Stir well to combine, there should be no lumps.

Pour the chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients and mix well to combine, about 2 minutes, there should be no lumps.  Add the eggs one at a time making sure to mix well in between.

Pour sauce over top.  Enjoy!
