    Here's a good conversion chart:

    One ounce of unsweetened chocolate = three tablespoons of cocoa. Reduce fat in recipe by one tablespoon.

    For each ounce of unsweetened chocolate use 3 Tablespoons of cocoa powder and 1 Tablespoon of butter.

    Personally I am not find of whiskey and I would use Amaretto..I will have to search for the recipe.

    The best is clear alcohol, or vodka as a base of it.

    You may add a bit of gelatin to give it the body of a Diva chocolate liqueur.
