16 Ways To Eat Chocolate For Breakfast, So You Can Always Start Your Day Off Right
Even though you're a fully grown adult, there's no reason why you shouldn't eat chocolate for breakfast. It's basically an undisputed fact that chocolate is one of the greatest things to eat on this earth. I don't even have the words to describe how delicious it is. It's safe to say that chocolate is good on basically anything, whether it's something hot, cold, salty, or equally as sweet. So who's to say you can't have it for breakfast? Just because it's sweet doesn't mean you can't eat it first thing in the morning!
In fact, I would go so far as to say that chocolate actually tastes better when eaten with a cup of coffee when you first wake up. I don't know why, it just does. If you want to make yourself feel better about the fact that you're eating dessert during the most important meal of the day, then just incorporate chocolate into some classic breakfast foods. These 16 recipes below will help you eat chocolate for breakfast guilt-free every day of the week. Enjoy!
