Lighter Chocolate Snacks

If someone wants to give me a heart shaped box of chocolates, I will gratefully accept it.

(I think you know who you are.)

I will not toss it in his face screaming something like, “It will take me 10,000 miles on the treadmill to work these off. What were you thinking?” Not me.

But, if you love chocolate, too much of a good thing can lead to a softness around your middle. I did reduce my chocolate consumption and found that I got slimmer. How did I do it?

Instead of eating bars of chocolate, I started drizzling it everywhere and dipping things into it. This way, I get chocolate flavor but not so many of the calories.

Here are 10 ideas that I have found so that I can enjoy chocolate, but eat less of it:

1. DIY-Reeses-Peanut-Butter-Cup Do It Yourself Healthier Reese’s Peanut Butter Bites

2. Light Chocolate Treat Here Comes The “Festival of Chocolate”

3. Fig In Chocolate Recipe Yum! A Caramel Salted Chocolate Makeover

4. Healthy Cookie Dough Dip Recipe Eating Cookie Dough Just Got Healthier

5. Low Calorie Candy Recipe Do It Yourself Skinny Candy: Fun To Make & Eat

6. Lighter Almond Joy An Almond Joy Makeover From A Sweet & Skinny Top Chef

7. Lightest Dessert Recipe The Most Satisfying, Lowest Calorie, & Easiest Chocolate Dessert Ever Created

8. Healthier Brownies Make This Delicious Brownie And Eat It Every Day Guilt Free

9. Popcorn With Chocolate Recipe How To Make Dark Chocolate Last Forever

10. Vegan Hot Chocolate Vegan, Luxurious, Hot......Chocolate

Please share your tricks for inhaling less chocolate.

I have tried a few of your ideas above and love them! I love and crave the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. So if I have that sudden craving, I make a half sandwich with peanut butter and about 1/2 teaspoon of Nutella spread over it. You would be surprised how far that half teaspoon goes!
