The REAL No-Guilt Chocolate Pudding image

In my journey to applying the 90/10 (okay 80/20) rule to my food ethic - that is, 90 percent good for you and 10 percent ... not so much - I'm always on a quest to find dessert holy grails. If I'm going to indulge in dessert, it better be good. Medjool dates, by themselves, no matter how exponentially sweet, are not going to cut it when I want something velvety, chocolatey and rich.
