Dd brought home a recipe for math homework!! They are praticing measurments...anyway, it calls for two squares unsweetened chocolate.....I don't have that, but I do have the powdered Hersheys cocoa in the can. Can this be substituted (if so, how) or do I need to run to the store? Thanks!!

Vicki, I'm not sure, but is the Hershey's cocoa in the can unsweetened, and I wouldn't know how to change measurements

I don't have a can of that on hand.

LOL...oh good lord, it is right on the bottom of the can!! LOL 3 level T of cocoa + 1 T shortening or oil equals one square!! Yippee, I don't have to go to the store!! Thanks for making me take a closer look!! I swear, sometimes I can be so blonde I amaze myself!! LOL

I'm too late, but that is what I was going to say! It says right on the can!
