Will not satisfy a chocolate craving

I chose this recipe because I had all of the ingredients in my kitchen, and I thought maybe no one else had reviewed it yet because the measurements were in pounds instead of cups which could make it more difficult. I got out my kitchen scale and followed the recipe, and the batter was delicious. Unfortunately, the brownies were not half as good as the batter. I tasted the hint of cinnamon more than the cocoa, and they were just kind of mild and bland and not what I would consider a brownie. Just not exciting to the taste buds. I will probably not make this recipe again, but I think I need to stick to recipes that include chocolate instead of or in addition to cocoa to satisfy my craving for a rich and chocolatey brownie. This one was neither of those things. Easier measurements if you don't have a scale: the butter equates to 3 sticks, 2 1/2 cups sugar, 5 large eggs, 2/3 cup cocoa, and 1 3/4 cup flour.
