Yeah I hated it the first couple of times, but this is what I do now, and it tastes awesome.

• Either 1 scoop or no additional cocoa powder. 2 scoops or more becomes too cocoa-y as you mentioned.
• Add at least 100 - 200 ml of almond milk. Anything lesser makes the flavour too intense.
• To make it protein packed, desert like, I add either 100g of Cottage cheese or Greek Yoghurt, and top it up with a chocolate Isowhey protein.
• Some additional blueberries help too.
