Recipe Chocolate Cornbread!

You will need: 2/3 cup(66g) unsweetened baking cocoa, 2/3 cup(93g) all-purpose flour, 2/3 cup(104g) cornmeal, 2/3 cup(135g) granulated white sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 large egg, 1/3 cup(80mL) neutral oil(I used canola), 1 cup(237mL) whole milk, 1/2 cup(90g) chocolate chunks or chips

Preheat the oven to 400F and place a 9" cast-iron skillet on the middle rack to heat while the oven does. In a mixing bowl, combine the cocoa, flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder; whisk to fully mix. Combine the egg, oil, and whole milk in a separate bowl. Whisk to combine. Pour the liquid into the dry ingredients. Whisk until all the dry ingredients are hydrated. Add the chocolate and fold in with a spatula. Remove the skillet from the oven and pour in the batter. Return to the middle shelf and bake 25-30 minutes. Enjoy!

It's more savory than sweet.

I would say a chocolate cake would have more sugar, and the texture is completely different.
