Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Mix together the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: eggs, yogurt, vanilla, vegetable oil, and sugar until smooth.

Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Pour the batter into a prepared cake pan.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

For the topping, melt the chocolate bar with butter and honey, then mix in toasted pecans.
