Cooking instruction summary:

Devil's Chocolate CakeIn a small mixing bowl add the cocoa powder and pour the hot water over it. Stir until combined and leave it to cool slightly. Heat the oven to 350F. Line one 8 inch springform pan with parchment paper or grease it with butter. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well and scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Add the cooled cocoa mixture. In another bowl sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture to the cocoa butter alternately with the Greek yogurt. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, tap the sides to remove any air bubbles and bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour and 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Check the cake for doneness after the first 55-55 minutes, not early and avoid opening the oven door at least in the first 50 minutes. When the cake is done, leave it to cool for about 15 minutes in the pan before removing it. Leave to cool completely before slicing it in two layers. In a mixing bowl cream the butter and the cream cheese and light and fluffy. Slowly add the powder sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well before adding more. When all the sugar is added add the vanilla and increase the speed, mixing on medium to high for 2 minutes. If the frosting seem to be too thick add few drops of milk and mix well. With a spatula fold in the chopped peppermint bark. Spread 2/3 of the frosting on top of one layer of the chocolate cake, add the 2nd layer on top and spread the remaining cream cheese frosting. Decorate with the Christmas candy and candy cane as you like.
