This post is for all those chocolate lovers who also love to eat healthy! All these chocolate treats will definitely satisfy your craving 🙂
Chocolate is one of my favorite chemicals to study! I love it so much, I chose it to be my senior research project when I was finishing my chemistry degree. Chocolate can actually be a really beneficial food for your health, but usually it is accompanied with a ton of sugar and saturated fat. That makes it taste good, of course, but isn’t always necessary.
My husband is a hardcore chocolate addict, but since he can’t eat dairy, we are always testing out healthier versions of his favorite desserts.

Here is our list of delicious healthy chocolate treats!
One. Dairy-Free Dutch Brownies via Chemistry Cachet
I make these ALL the time. They are really great, and can also be gluten-free.
Two. Vegan Chocolate Truffles via Minimalist Baker
Chocolate truffles are always a decadent treat, but this version is much better for you than traditional.
Three. Chocolate Cake for Two via Chemistry Cachet
This is my favorite one. It is really moist and rich like a fudge cake.
Four. Chocolate Fudge Balls via Chocolate Covered Katie
This is like a truffle, but a little different. I love the main base of dates!
Five. Healthy Chocolate Pudding via AllRecipes.Com
Chocolate pudding is another favorite of ours. Most you buy at the store are full of all types of chemicals and sugar. This recipe is so easy to whip up!
Six. Chocolate Fudge Cookies via Chemistry Cachet
Another favorite of mine! We had so many readers try these out and say they really enjoyed them. Great dairy-free and gluten-free too!
Seven. Hot Chocolate Hazelnut Coffee via Chemistry Cachet
This coffee is fan favorite too. Since its winter, there is nothing better than warming up with some chocolate coffee after dinner!
Eight. Healthy Chocolate Fudge Sauce via Recipes to Nourish
All chocolate lovers need a delicious fudge sauce. This one is super easy and healthy!!
Nine. Healthy Chocolate Cream Pie via Cooking Light
My husband is crazy about chocolate pie! One of his all-time favorites. This recipe is a great lighter version
Ten. Allergy-Free Baked Chocolate Donuts via Chemistry Cachet
These are perfect for any food allergy since they are dairy-free, gluten-free, AND egg-free! Just pure chocolatey goodness. I make these all the time for tea or coffee treats when friends come over. Almost all my friends have some sort of food allergy, so these are always a win!

Chocolate x 10 – on a Monday – wonderful! The mere titles got my brain going “so yummy” and my tummy was growling at 5:30am. I look forward to making some of these… the mug cakes look good – and a manageable size, too. Happy Chocolate Monday!

Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis says
Everything looks so decadent! Growing I was a huge chocoholic but now I’m so “vanilla”. Your Chocolate Hazelnut Coffee recipe looks amazing though! I can definitely indulge in that one plus I love the hazelnut flavor.
Alexis says
I’ve actually gotten to were I love vanilla too! When it comes to ice cream, I am vanilla all the way! That coffee is amazing!
