I love chocolate any time of day. I like to start with a splash of organic chocolate milk in my coffee. Then I lead up to a croissant filled with the blissful delight. If there are no croissant’s to be found, then I put a little piece of See’s Dark chocolate in a french roll and heat in the toaster for 2 minutes. yummm
