Is it possible for chocolate to be completely healthy? I submit that indeed it is. My new neighbor friend, Melissa, brought these lovely chunks of chocolate tart over for me to sample and I was amazed that healthy chocolate could taste this good. The texture was awesome- mostly, I just wanted to munch on the filling! These are not ingredients I would have on hand, but worth hunting down. She said she likes to freeze them and get her "chocolate fix" from time to time without feeling too guilty. Brilliant, Melissa! :) Thank you for sharing!
