With Halloween around the corner we’re bound to be tempted by all of the chocolate goodies surrounding us. But, before go and you swear off the sweet stuff, keep in mind that dark chocolate is actually great for you! So, go ahead and treat yourself to these five delicious chocolate recipes from Dr. Will Clower!

This recipe for a Citrus-Chocolate Biscotti is perfect for starting your day, especially when paired with a warm cup of Chai tea or a healthier, dairy-free version of everyone’s favorite, a Pumpkin Spice Latte.

Looking for a sweet treat after dinner? This Chocolate-Strawberry Shortcakes with an Amaretto Cream is perfect!

Dr. Clower’s Chocolate Zucchini Bread recipe is my personal favorite and is great for a sweet mid-day snack!

The Ricotta Cappuccino recipe is chilled, whipped heaven and it’s no wonder it’s such a popular dessert in Italy!

We ended the week on a sweet note with a spin on a classic! These Chocolate Covered Strawberries have a hint of raspberry flavor that jazzes up a simple dessert.
