Actually, I think brownies would work better with Dutch-processed cocoa,
because you don't *want* them to rise. Maybe that's just my preference, but
I like brownies which are more fudgy than cakey.

Many people like the flavor better. It's a more "mellow" chocolate flavor.
It's the "Oreo" flavor, and many people prefer it in cocoa.
