I am going to try this recipe in the coming week

http://www.keystonehomebrew.com/beerkits/beerkits/Coffee_Porter.pdf

Ingredients
6.6 lb. Muntons Light Malt Extract
1 lb. Hugh Baird Carastan Malt 30° L
1 lb. Franco-Belges Kiln Coffee Malt ° L
½ lb. Thomas Fawcett Brown Malt ° L
1½ oz. U.S. Fuggle Hop Pellets (Bittering)
½ oz. U.S. Fuggle Hop Pellets (Flavoring)
Wyeast # 1099XL Whitbread Ale Yeast

My question is if I add 1/2 lb of Chocolate Malt is it going to give it any chocolate characteristic? Or would adding coco powder do it better? This is my 4th brew so still tryin to figure it all out (I'm sure in 20 years it'll all be old hat).
