Top Picks - Healthy Chocolate Recipes  from your Low Fat Cooking Guide
There's no getting around the fact that chocolate is a high-fat food. But there is growing evidence that, in small quantities, some kinds of chocolate may actually be good for you.

1) Low Fat Chocolate Truffles
Using light cream cheese instead of heavy cream, you can enjoy these sweet treats without feeling too guilty. They can be rolled in cocoa powder, confectioner's sugar, chopped nuts or chocolate sprinkles.

2) Reduced Fat Chocolate Pudding
Enjoy this rich chocolate pudding as a special treat. For Valentine's Day, put some candy hearts on top, or perhaps fresh raspberries.

3) Low Fat Fudge Brownies
Don't feel guilty about eating one of these low-fat brownies. They make a wonderfully chocolately treat with very little of the original fat.
