Have a look at the recipes section. Another great resource is BYO

They have numerous stout recipes. There is a lot of variation in the style, but if you are bent on chocolate stout, use the highest quality cocoa powder you can find. Not the junk filled with additives and fillers.

5 gallon boil?

Yeah I did a full 5 gal boil. (More like 6) but I'm sure it would turn out if you were doing a 3 gal boil.

I brewed a Cocolate Milk Stout extract kit from Northern Brewer about 3 weeks ago. Its chilling in the secondary at the moment so I can't tell you about the finished beer but it looks promising.
