Рецепт Chipotle Chocolate Chip Cake: Sexy, Feel-Good Fare
Chipotle Chocolate Chip Cake: Sexy, Feel-Good Fare
I don't trust people who don't like chocolate. There, I've said it. Allergies? Sure, I can understand allergies, but a person who doesn't like chocolate? Something just ain't right, there.
Research has unearthed a plethora of health benefits attributed to chocolate consumption. (For my "Three Amigos" fans... What is a plethora?)
Firstly, regular chocolate eaters may frequently have a lower Body Mass Index (BMI).
Secondly, chocolate is full of antioxidants, when processed correctly.
Thirdly, chocolate may reduce risk factors for heart disease.
Finally, eating chocolate may -- for women -- increase sexual libido and arousal response.
I'm sorry, but a person's gotta have a pretty hearty grudge against chocolate to not like all that.
And hot peppers? Well, they release endorphins, the pleasure hormone. So, pairing chilis with chocolate provides a perfect combination for sexy, feel-good, fare.
SEXY IS GOOD.
