Making cakes chocolate - advice please

[Cat98]

Hello, I made 24 plain fairy cakes the other week from a simple recipe and they were nice - I have tried other recipes but they just don't rise for me!

So I want to make the same recipe but as chocolate fairy cakes. The recipe has 225 g self raising flour - am I right in thinking I just need to substitute some cocoa for some flour? If so, how much?

Thanks

Yes you can just swap flour for cocoa - I'd swap 50g of it in that amount of flour to make them really chocolatey.

Thanks very much!

Thanks amuminscotland - just wanted to update that I took your advice and they are yummy!
