Nutritional Bonus: While dark chocolate, like the chocolate in our almond butter cookies, contains potent antioxidants, think twice before enjoying it with milk. Researchers have found that the bittersweet treat’s free radical fighters may bind with the protein in milk, interfering with antioxidant absorption and possibly negating any associated health benefits.
