Did you know chocolate is good for you?

Chocolate is almost a superfood, it's really good for you. But sugar kills.

So what's a guy to do?

Here's what I did, Trader Joes has a pound dark chocolate bar for $5.99, which is a steal. It's supposedly 85%, but it I suspect the real number is 70-75% chocolate.

I got 2 bars of Bakers unsweetened baking chocolate and melted them with the TJ bar. I add a scant tblsp of SugarRX, which is an artificial sweetener. I almost always use the hazelnut flavor.

After everything was mixed, I lined an 11 inch pan with aluminum foil, and chilled it.

The result was delicious, despite being about 90% chocolate, it wasn't bitter, and the liquid sweetener made the bars soft, melt in your mouth.

At my grocery store, a bottle is 7 bucks, on the internet, it's close to twice that. Shouldn't be hard to find.
