Ingredients & Substitutions
Feel free to substitute the whole wheat flour with a gluten-free flour blend if you need it. The cocoa powder adds a rich flavor, but you can leave it out if you'd prefer a vanilla mug cake instead! I love adding a pinch of sea salt to enhance the chocolate flavor.
Tips & Notes
