    Double shot of espresso + 1 teaspoon of THIS HERSHEY'S LIFESAVING DRUG + 1 packet of stevia + 1/2 cup of frothed milk = Sugar-free mocha cappuccino that tastes better than $tarbucks.

    We do. It's bog standard cocoa powder and a load of Americans are acting as if it's something new and strange.

    Really? Is plain cocoa powder really a revelation to so many Americans?

    I've found, when not sweetening it (eg for my overnight oats), a little cinnamon helps take off the bitter edge.


    Right?!? Where have these people been that they have never heard of cocoa powder. It's been around over 100 years!

    Yeah, I was second guessing myself, thinking this was some new type of cocoa powder and it isn't. OP just learned about it. The rest of us who grew up with it are all like, wtf dude; welcome to the 20th century.

    Cocoa = Vomit. I'll stick with plain whites and vanilla protein, thanks.

    This is also great in plain greek yogurt or organic yogurt. Add a packet of Truvia and it satisfies my sweet/chocolate craving.

    Not a huge chocolate fan, but I would like some of these suggestions, I believe. Thanks a lot!

    I have one in my pantry for making brownies, which now that I think about it, hasn't been for a year or so.

    oh good lord at first I thought you were eating it straight. Glad to see that wasnt the case. :tongue:
    ... I may have eaten a spoonful of it straight on occasion. And this is why I should always keep real chocolate in the house.

    This. I've been snorting that *kitten*. No kidding but I do put it in my coffee more days than not. Currently I'm using up my trader joe's version but any name on the label...powdered chocolate with no cals....:heart::drinker: .

    I put this in oatmeal and it was awful... what did I do wrong? :S

    'cause It's not like chocolate that you normailly snack on (that has sugar & cocoa butter added back in)

    Heresey's cocao powder is 100% cocoa, from the cocoa (cacao) bean. After all the cocoa butter (aka fat) is removed.
    And BEFORE sugar (aka additioanl carbs) are added.

    so if you want sweetness, you have to add your own sweetness ie sugar, honey, agave, etc.

    My childhood "invention" was cocoa powder stirred into Cool Whip (please don't judge me!) -- I called it "chocolate mousse" and still make it occasionally, and I'm 47. :smile:

    I use it to make chocolate peanut butter cheesecake that has around 30 grams of protein per serving and less than 350 calories in each slice with lower fat and moderate carb content. Tastes awesome!

    PLEEEEASE may I have this recipe?:)

    Yes, I'm aware of that. I never eat oatmeal without sweetener anyway, so this was in addition to that... didn't taste good at all.
