Sock-It-Me-Cake Recipe?

I came across this recipe that sounds very good except for one ingredient, 2 tsp cinnamon. Hubby is alergic to cinnamon and I don't like the taste at all. I usually just leave cinnamon out but this time I had a thought. (yea, I know, dangerous. LOL) Could I replace the cinnamon with cocoa powder for a more chocolate flavor instead?Sock-It-Me-Cake Recipe?

You could but I don't think 2 tsp. is enough to really give it a more chocolate flavor. If you like nutmeg you might try that.
Good idea. I say try it and see how it comes out. i might try it my self.
I think you can because I've seen a hundred different recipes for this cake.....some even use bosco and 7 up ...... so you can do that no probs.
