Chocolate hack

Here is a tip combining two of my passions - health and chocolate. Like chocoholics everywhere, I was delighted when the health benefits of chocolate were discovered (or were they just made public?). Now we know that eating your daily chocolate is an essential cancer prevention strategy.

But not just any chocolate. It must be a 'high percentage' dark chocolate. And unfortunately the higher your percentage of health enhancing cocoa, the more bitter the chocolate.

Now usually I don't venture any higher than 65 - 75 percent. Higher than that, eating is no longer a pleasure. But I received a bag of Lindt 85% chocolate squares for Christmas. Not to seem ungrateful, I choked down a square or two and then left the rest.

Now I have discovered an excellent hack. Take your bitter little square of health and put it between two biscuits. Tea biscuits work well. Here I have used digestives. Mmm.... Somehow the biscuit brings out the chocolatey goodness of the healthy chocolate, making it taste not so healthy anymore.

Of course, thanks to the amazing Lifehack.org for the title idea.
