*Studies show that eating a small amount of dark chocolate two or three times a week can help lower your blood pressure. In addition, dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants and has a low glycemic index, meaning it won't cause huge spikes in blood sugar levels.*

Hi! I was sent by 100days of clean eating on IG. I'm trying to make this, but my store didn't carry bakers dark chocolate and so I had to get Hershey's special dal chocolate candy bars... They wouldn't melt for crap! What type of dark chocolate are you supposed to use??
ReplyDeleteHi hun! Yay! I love 100daysofcleaneating <3 :) I believe I used Lindt Excellence 90% Dark Cocoa to be exact! And if I recall correctly I found it at the Publix by my house. But, if anything, you can always browse your local Whole Foods or the closest health grocer in your area and find a similar brand. Hope that helps!
