  • Use unrefined sweeteners. Instead of white sugar, choose sweeteners like maple syrup or coconut sugar.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar. Add enough sugar to balance the chocolate flavor.
  • You can use walnuts, pecans, or any nut variety for a crunchy texture.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough. Otherwise, the cake will dry out.
  • Grease the baking dish or line it with parchment paper. In this way, the cake does not stick or fall apart.
