    I love Endangered Species chocolate! I've been chipping away at a cranberry and almond bar for sometime.

    Plus, they give a nice, little pamphlet about the pictured animal in the wrapper. :wink:

    I have a bag of semi-sweet choco chips in the freezer at home and when I have a hankering for chocolate, I will get a tablespoon or two of them and put a few at a time in my mouth and let them melt slowly. Pretty satisfying. or sometimes, I will get a plain greek yogurt and squirt a little hershey's chocolate syrup in it.

    Ya, I can make 70 calories worth of Ghiradelli semi-sweet chocolate chips last 45 minutes and my chocolate itch is more than satisfied by the time I'm done.

    I put plain cocoa (unsweetened, baking cocoa) in my smoothies, with avocado or banana for creaminess, and frozen fruit (blueberries, cherries, strawberries) for sweetness, protein powder as desired, or not. Obviously this only works as "not blowing your calories" if you were already going to have a smoothie as part of your daily calories anyway.

    Also good in cold weather: plain cocoa in your favorite low-cal milk or milk substitute (e.g., almond milk) -- I use unsweetened and add just a little sugar, less than in the sweetened version of the "milk" plus cinnamon and ground chilis (e.g., cayenne) for heat.

    I've tossed the chocolate chips in a bowl of sliced strawberries and eaten with a spoon. That's pretty good too. Like a chocolate covered strawberry without the work.

    I make chocolate smoothies with unsweetened baking cocoa, frozen banana, almond milk, and vanilla extract. I add a little cashew butter to help make it more creamy sometimes. I'll also add some orange extract sometimes to change it up.

    I love the Godiva 72%. After eating it for awhile I stopped liking candy bars so much because the chocolate just isn't that great, lol. It's really rich in flavor, so I don't want as much of it (usually).

    crush up a few squares of chocolate and mix into greek yogurt, any flavor. I think its good with raspberry. Also a fan of the chocolate PB2 idea. You can also mix cocoa powder into your oatmeal or vanilla greek yogurt, both also delicious.
