    I make my own trail mix (store bought ones have soy (I’m allergic) and too much sodium). When I have a chocolate craving I throw in some dark chocolate chips:

    Also you can take chocolate protein powder and turn it into a pudding. And pb fit makes it taste like a Reese. Or just go plain chocolate and add real whipped cream and strawberries.

    4 tablespoons of almond butter, 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, 3 tablespoons of cocoa all melted over low heat. add a little liquid stevia of your choice to taste or powdered stevia. pour into mini muffin tins lined with paper cups or in silicone pans, and freeze. you've got a good fat treat that YOU know what you put into it. these are great for chocolate cravings - xo

    Chocolate rice cakes are delicious! That with some peanut butter (or pb2) and a banana cut up, with whipped cream, is my latest snack obsession

    I just made chocolate rolls with two ingredient dough and dark chocolate. Totally yum at 80 calories and 4 protein each. 2 at a time would do it.

    If you're craving chocolate regularly, you may be low in magnesium. I was a chocolate addict before I started taking magnesium daily (250 - 1000 mg/day). Now, I only eat a piece once in a while and I can stop at just one or two pieces. Americans are often low in magnesium which also can help your bowel movements. You'll know if you've taken too much.

    Regarding the snack, prunes and plums sweet and low in calories. Halva is delicious but definitely not low in calories (at least the sesame based halva).

    And sometimes, you should just eat the chocolate, especially dark chocolate. Try to use the higher quality chocolate that is full of cocoa butters but not as high in sugar.

    Totally missed this! The two ingredient dough is fat free plain Greek yogurt and self rising flour. Here's the recipe for the cinnamon ones. I just used dark chocolate chips instead. Light butter if I use butter. Made little ones.
