4.44 ounces of cocoa powder equals 1.46 cups. That's 125.87g, and Cocoa powder has a density of 86g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 4.44 ounces of cocoa powder
- Convert ounces to grams: 4.44 × 28.35 = 125.87g
- 1 cup of cocoa powder = 86g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
