It may be okay...depending on the recipie. Say you're making chocolate icing. It would probably be fine...but just to be sure you should test it first. Use a small amount of each ingredient, taste it and make sure it tastes allright. In my opinion, making something like chocolate cookies, you would probably have to use semi sweet chocolate {if it was called for, as asked} or the recipie wouldn't turn out right.
