This is such a "good for you snack". First off cocoa is a huge antioxidant, secondly walnuts are heart healthy and loaded with good fats. In addition to heart healthy ingredients, walnuts also contain a wealth of other nutrients, including vitamin E, the B vitamins, fiber, and several minerals. Many of the studies performed suggest that you only need to consume only a handful of walnuts a day to receive the cholesterol-lowering benefits of walnuts. The FDA agrees with this health claim so eat them up.
