If cocoa is an aphrodisiac this version should be a wowser - it's close to sin all on its own - you need some good eating chocolate and some real cream - I like heavy cream but Protestants may opt for light cream - break up chocolate (to taste) into a heatproof mug of real cream - microwave until the chocolate melts - stir - drink. That's it. Technically it's hot chocolate, not cocoa, but if cocoa is a mild aphrodisiac, this stuff should really do the trick.

Try two ounces of chocolate (I like dark sweet chocolate for this recipe) and one cup cream in a coffee mug heated for one minute.

Trader Joe's has Girardelli in bulk. That's what I use.

This is so good.

Hey, chocolate is good for you. Contains antioxidants, catechins and flavonoids and all that stuff. Contains phenylethylamine that is similar to what your body puts out when you're in love. Contains small quantities of anandamide, which is also produced naturally in the brain and stimulates the same neural receptors that THC (the principal active chemical in marijuana) does. Chocolate stimulates the release of endorphins, which make you feel good. Researchers have found that people who eat chocolate regularly live longer than people who don't.
