I liked the site when 3rd parties where not used. Too bad the cost is higher also.
I don’t see how you can sustain a profit.

What other sweetener could I use? I don’t care for Splenda. Monk fruit or Truvia are my favorites.
Absolutely!
Used 9×9 and it’s been baking for 40 minutes and still liquid. Used 1.5 cups monk fruit sweetener instead of stevia
can i use cocoa powder instead of the chocolate? if so how much
Probably. The ingredients of unsweetened baking chocolate and cocoa powder are usually similar so give it a try!
Sincerely,
Andrew
