Here are 11 ooey, gooey, delicious recipes to satisfy your sweet tooth without blowing your healthy eating goals.

  • I eat one square (about 1/2 oz) of Trader Joe’s Pound Plus 72% Cacao Dark Chocolate each day. I break up the bar, which is a little over 17 oz, and enjoy a delicious, healthy treat every day.

  • All of the recipe look so good. Been looking for ones that have a health back ground. Thanks can’t wait to try all. Love the new look of the page.

  • The Beet cupcakes were to die for – very moist and No One new. My friends and family enjoyed them, especially me 🙂 Yum. I’m looking forward to trying some of the other recipes.
