Cooking instruction summary:

Add the chocolate, butter and milk to a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until melted and smooth stirring constantly. Beat in the sugar and cool. I took the quick road and place it in the refrigerator, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile heat the oven to 350F and line an 18 cupcake pan with paper liners. In a small bowl mix the egg yolks with the yogurt. In another bowl sift the flour with baking powder and salt. In a grease free bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks (they should point straight up without collapsing. My mom used to turn the bowl upside down) When the chocolate mixture is cooled, put it into a mixing bowl with the paddle attachment on beat in the egg yolk mixture followed by the flour. Remove the bowl from the mixer and with a spatula slowly fold in the whipped egg whites. Scoop the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 18 minutes or until soft to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing and completely before frosting. In a bowl sift together the powder sugar and cocoa.Add the butter to a mixing bowl. With the whisk attachment on, whip the butter on medium to high speed for about 5 minutes, stopping once to scrape the sides of the bowl.Reduce the speed to low and slowly add the sugar little by little waiting until it is mostly incorporated before adding more.Once all of the powdered sugar has been added, scrape the sides of the bowl, add the milk and increase the speed to medium-high and whip until fluffy for about 2 minutes. If needed add more milk

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
