Instructions
Use raw cocoa powder, cacao powder, or Dutch-processed cocoa powder in equal amounts to substitute for cocoa powder.
Use twice as much hot cocoa mix to add a strong enough chocolate flavor, a 2:1 ratio. Note that this will also add plenty of sweetness, so adjust your recipe accordingly.
