Choco Nut Cake Recipe

Directions:

1. Make the cake. Grease bottom and sides of an 8 round pan and set aside.

3. In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
4. In separate bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add melted chocolate and vanilla extract. Beat batter until smooth.
5. Add flour mixture to batter alternately with the yogurt. Pour batter into prepared pan. Unwrap the coconut and form into a circle. Arrange the coconut rope on the center of cake batter.
6. Bake in preheated oven about one hour or until cake tester inserted in the center comes clean. Let cool.
