A very tasty and quickly prepared cake that can brighten up your mornings.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Lightly grease a narrow, oblong baking pan (30 x 12 cm) with butter and line it with baking paper. Chop the chocolate into pieces and melt it in the microwave or over a double boiler.
In a bowl, cream the butter with regular and vanilla sugar. Gradually, one by one, mix in the eggs.
In another bowl, add the banana sliced into rounds and mash it with a fork. If the banana is firmer, you can also blend it with a hand mixer. Mix the mashed banana with yogurt and melted chocolate. In a third bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Mix the sifted ingredients well.
Alternately mix the dry and wet (banana, yogurt, chocolate) ingredients into the egg-butter mixture. In the end, you should have a medium-thick batter, which you pour into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly over the entire surface, smoothing the top nicely. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour. It is done when a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
Let the baked cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack using the baking paper and let it cool completely. If desired, you can drizzle the cooled cake with melted chocolate and decorate it as you like.
