The link shown by the first answer doesn't actually give a recipe, just another way to incorporate chocolate into ready made marzipan. I suggest you make it from scratch and add some good quality cocoa powder to the ground almonds & sugar. You may need slightly more egg to mix it with but you should be able to adjust the quantities as you go along.
