Step:

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl (flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa, salt and carob). Whisk thoroughly
Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl (yoghurt and water). Whisk thoroughly
Slowly add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined
Pour the batter in a round 25 cm cake pan that's been greased and lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-35 min in a 180C oven
Make the frosting: combine chocolate and milk in a bowl. Microwave until melted at 30 second intervals, stirring each time. Let cool a bit then pour over the cake. Refrigerate until firm
