Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the rolled oats, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt.

  6. Press the mixture firmly into a parchment-lined container, smoothing the top.
  7. Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or by microwaving it in intervals until smooth. Mix it with the yogurt until you achieve a shiny consistency.
  8. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the oat base and sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired.
  9. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes or until firm.
  10. Cut into portions and serve cold.
