Well, if adding dark chocolate isn't an option, adding green to red makes dark brown, so perhaps since it has a reddish tint, you could take a small amount and add some green to it. I'd try forest green, if you have it.

I always use a chocolate fudge-did that with the monkey pan-looked and tasted delicious!
