Sweet Chocolate Treat


It's the first day of a new month, and for many of us, warmer weather couldn't come soon enough this year. With all of the yo-yo temperatures throwing workout schedules, motivation and attitudes into a funk, a little fun and sun is more than welcome. 

With that being said, most of us have been working pretty diligently through all the crazy weather to create a healthier, more toned version of ourselves. But, looking good in a bathing suit or running a faster mile sometimes just doesn't cut it as a reward.

Cue the chocolate.

Today's recipe is a healthier version of a chocolate tart that will satisfy your cravings for sweets with super foods like cacao and coconut milk instead of the usual unhealthy ingredients. It's quick, easy and you can feel good about what you're putting into that body you've been toiling on during these last bleak months. 

Semi-Healthy Chocolate Tart
Gather:
can of fermented coconut milk (full fat is fine)
melted dark chocolate
gluten free (or regular) crust of choice

Method: 
Using between a cup, or a cup and half of each (depending on the serving you are making)
Melt chocolate over medium heat. 
Stir in coconut and allow to thicken
Pour into pre-baked pastry shell and chill. It will form a kind of mousse/pudding consistency
