By Wafa — 100+ tested recipes
White chocolate yogurt cake is a promise of sweetness and indulgence. Quick and easy to prepare, it combines the lightness of yogurt with the richness of white chocolate for an irresistible result.
Ingredients
- 1 pot (approx. 125g) full-fat yogurt
- 0.5 pot sugar
- 0.5 pot oil
- 3 eggs
- 2 pots all-purpose flour
- 1 bar white chocolate bar (200g)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- 1Grease a cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- 2Gently melt the white chocolate in a double boiler (bain-marie). Once melted, let it cool slightly until lukewarm. (White chocolate is very heat-sensitive; watch it carefully to prevent it from burning.)
- 3Pour the yogurt into a bowl, then use the empty container (the pot) to measure the other ingredients.
- 4Add the sugar to the yogurt, mix, then incorporate the eggs one by one.
- 5Fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until the batter is smooth, then pour in the oil and mix again.
- 6Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
- 7Bake for approximately 25 minutes. Let it cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. (If you prefer a fluffier cake rather than a fudgy one, extend the baking time to 30-35 minutes.)
Tips
- Choose a white chocolate with at least 30% cocoa butter.
- Use full-fat yogurt for a moister result.
- Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler rather than a microwave for better control.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use any brand of white chocolate for this recipe?
It is best to choose high-quality white chocolate with a high cocoa butter percentage to ensure a better flavor profile and a smoother cake texture.
Can I add other ingredients without ruining the recipe?
Yes, this base works very well with additions. You can fold in raspberries, pears, white chocolate chips, or even some chopped hazelnuts or almonds. Just be careful not to overload the batter to maintain the correct structure during baking.
Can I make this cake in advance?
Yes, this cake keeps very well. You can easily make it the day before; it will stay moist and the flavors will have time to develop. Store it at room temperature, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container. Avoid the refrigerator, as it tends to firm up the texture.
Does this cake keep well?
Yes, the white chocolate yogurt cake keeps for up to three days at room temperature when properly wrapped. For longer storage, you can refrigerate or freeze it.
Is this cake suitable for children?
Yes, it is particularly popular with children thanks to its sweetness and melt-in-the-mouth texture. You can even slightly reduce the sugar if the white chocolate you are using is already very sweet.
