Why is this? I think partly because the day after the holiday is over, I take back control. Am I a control freak? Maybe. But that&#8217;s beside the point. We all need to feel as if our lives, and in particular our happiness, is within our control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\">So, after the big winter holiday I might buy myself the gift I secretly hoped to get, (on sale of course), or snap up some 75%-off decorations. Well, here we are in February, So, the day after Valentines Day, why not make yourself this most decadent flour-less dark chocolate cake?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-828\" title=\"Flourless_dark_chocolate_cake_cu\" src=\"https:\/\/bellapamella.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/Flourless_dark_chocolate_cake_cu-1.jpg\" alt=\"Flourless_dark_chocolate_cake_cu\" width=\"410\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bellapamella.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/Flourless_dark_chocolate_cake_cu-1.jpg 410w, https:\/\/bellapamella.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/Flourless_dark_chocolate_cake_cu-1-300x230.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\">Before you judge, keep in mind, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/food-recipes\/news\/20110207\/is-chocolate-the-next-super-food\">dark chocolate is currently considered one of the super foods<\/a>, due to its high antioxidant content.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\">But possibly more important, eating chocolate triggers the release of endorphins making you love the whole world just a little more. I found this recipe on line <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wholefoodsmarket.com\/recipes\/753\">here<\/a>. And making it will be just as pleasurable as eating it (the smell of dark chocolate infusing the house is worth it, right there).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\">So let&#8217;s move on and take back the day.
