Dark chocolate decadence

Dark chocolate decadence Posted on February 13, 2008

The Modern Gal definitely has a sweet tooth, and one of the ways she satisfies it is with a nibble of dark chocolate everyday.

Myrecipes.com has taken that nibble a little bit further with a whole lineup of decadent dark chocolate recipes. If you think that sounds good, wait til you see the pictures.

Says Myrecipes.com:

“High in antioxidants known as flavonoids, dark chocolate delivers an awesome nutritional wallop. Studies show that modest amounts ā€“ no more than 1 to 2 ounces ā€“ eaten every day can reduce risk of blood clots, lower blood pressure, increase endurance, improve skin quality, and even sharpen problem-solving skills. But put down that candy bar ā€“ notice the emphasis on dark chocolate, which has less sugar and 2 to 3 times more flavonoids than milk chocolate (white chocolate has none at all). And remember, even dark chocolate still contains calories and fat, so please use in moderation.”
