For the eggs to make it vegan?
Few clarifications.
1. I measured the flour, sugar and cocoa in grams. But cocoa that measured 50 grams did not measure to being 2/3 cup. I double checked. I went ahead and added additional cocoa to equal 2/3 cup.
Should I just stick to the grams measurement?
2. If I added more sugar to increase the sweetness, would it alter the texture of the cake?
Made with whole milk. Had to cook in a round pan instead of Bundt. Took a tad longer but Lovely.
Thank you.
