In my house, there’s no Sunday without dessert, and even if I haven’t gone out shopping, I make do with what I have at home. Fortunately, I find almost all the ingredients for a good Chocolate Cake with Yogurt and Apples, I say almost because I’m missing butter but I replace it with corn oil, as I often do, knowing it will come out delicious.
