Dark Chocolate Greek Yogurt Dip

Why didn't I think of this?

This dip is dark, rich, and packed with chocolate flavor.  Since Greek yogurt is involved, it is chock full of protein too, which makes me feel good about eating it.  You can dunk anything into this delicious dip: assorted fruits, snack crackers, mini marshmallows, just to name a few.  Heck, my daughter dipped her broccoli in it last night at the dinner table.  Hey, whatever works to get them to eat their vegetables, right?!

This fruit dip is easy to make, healthy AND decadent. It’s the perfect dip to make when company is coming over for coffee or drinks. The cayenne pepper in the recipe is optional. Try adding a tiny pinch, mix it in and then taste. You shouldn’t be able to tell it’s there. It’s just a little background tingle that makes the dip extra special.
