How do I “use” Dove Chocolate? I EAT it. I EAT a LOT of it. I treat myself at the end of a long week. I will give a grandkid some “Debbie chocolate” as they call it, as they overheard Granpa call it! Because it’s “my” special chocolate, of course they assume it’s something super special, and indeed it is, they tell me “Gramma your chocolate is the best”
I also bring a nice bag of chocolate promises as hostess gifts to my friends. They love it.
I keep Dove Dark Chocolate in my house as a treat when I have had a stressful day and need a little pick me up. I love the rich deep flavor. It makes me smile! shschaumburg@aol.com
I just eat it….sometimes, I will shave some onto the top of cake or brownie frosting – chop up bars to add to cookies. Delicious…nothing better than chocolate!
How I use dove chocolate. I eat them. When ever I want. As much I want.
I like to eat Dove chocolate all by itself, letting it melt in my mouth. I love the smooth texture.
Chocolate Chip Chunk Cookies, Brownies, Fudge, Naked, Just enjoy,plenty of uses for Dove Dark Chocolate…But most all is the deep dark chocolate flavor… Yummmmm!!!!
Mostly I just eat it, but around the holidays I like to make walnut clusters with it. For some reason, this impresses people. I know, they taste fantastic, but it’s the easiest thing in the world to do!
I eat them since both my husband and I love dark chocolate.
Dove dark chocolate is best with some fresh fruit. The combination of rich dark chocolate and fresh berries, peaches, pears, whatever is in season, cannot be beat. But don’t worry. Should we be short fresh fruit, we manage to eat Dove all by itself. It satisfies both the kids and the adults.
I use Dove to make molten chocolate cakes. Rich, creamy and SO good.
make hot chocolate milk in cold weather
Drop a Dove Dark Chocolate into your afternoon coffee.. yum!
I make a toffee base and then I melt white and dark chocilate on top and swirl, then chill for a lovely marriage of toffee and chocolate. Great for gifts and holiday!
I use it in recipes. It’s very good!
I prescribe Dove Dark Chocolate for sunny days or cloudy days, as an appetizer or a dessert, for work days, or days of rest…almost any situation!
Besides just eating Dove Dark Chocolate on it’s own, I also like to melt it and dip pretzels into it.
Dove dark chocolate is an excellent treat. This week the bag in my bedside table drawer was emptied. A couple of dark chocolate promises melt on the tongue and satisfy far better than the candy bars of my youth. I have not cooked with them – most of those baked treats are considerably higher in calories and sugar that I’m far better off with a Promise or two instead.

I use Dove Dark Chocolate in chocolate chunk cookies. I also melt it and dip fruit in it to make chocolate-covered strawberries, cherries, etc. But most of all I simply have a few pieces daily as a treat for myself.
I usually just eat it but they were yummy shaved on top of cupcakes and turned out really pretty.
I use Dove chocolate for a mood pick me up. It’s good for you and does help cheer me up.
I’d for sure share these with a dear friend who eats one per day….love dove!

It is a very very special snack when I have left over calories at the end of a long work week.
I like them all by themselves!
I love Dove chocolate, I have shave them over my dessert, pie and it’s divine. I love to eat them with ice cream or glass of milk. No other chocolate can compare to the rich tasting chocolate of the Dove.

I eat my Dove chocolae two ways.
One is the simple “take a piece and savor it”. Let it slowly melt over your tongue and . . .
The other is a treat my grandparents use to make me for my 4:00 PM snack. They would take a small piece of baguette, butter it and give me two squares of dark chocolate to eat with my buttered bread. Boy did I like quatre heure! I re-create it my way now.
It makes a great snack.
My family and I eat it right out of the bag.

I am addicted to Dove Dark chocolate. How do I use it?? I eat it.

Dove Chocolate and a cup of hot black coffee. A bite of chocolate and a sip of coffee, sit back and let the chocolate melt into the coffee, swallow and bliss ensues.
I like to melt down the dove dark chocolate and put it on top of peanut butter bars. You can use milk chocolate as well, but dark tastes better mixed with the peanut butter.
I usually eat the dark chocolate plain, though occasionally my wife like to break up pieces of both and put them into cookies.
I love to eat Dove Dark Chocolate as a snack, serve guests, or bake broken pieces in cookies!
i use it by eating it! this is the one thing i dont share with the kids! i keep it in a drawer in my desk! and when i need a pick me up i open one up and eat it slow!

I love Dove Dark chocolate. I eat it all the time. I have a hard time sharing it. It’s the only chocolate I will eat <3
We use chocolate to fuel our cardmaking ministry, Heaven Sent. Everyone agrees that the Dove chocolates, especially the Dark and the Dark with Raspberry are the ones we secretly crave. They go the fastest, taste scrumptious, satisfy the best, and inspire us to be the most creative.
Dove reminds me that I deserve to be happy. I can do anything I set my mind to & Dove is a secret sorce of motivation!
I absolutely cannot live without Dove Dark Chocolate with Raspberry. I have stopped buying any other candies! And that is saying a lot since I am a chocoholic.
I use Dove Dark Chocolate (usually the Promises because I enjoy the messages inside) as a snack/to get my chocolate fix. Nobody makes a smoother, tastier dark chocolate than Dove!
Dove dark chocolates are desert for my wife and I after lunch and dinner.
I bake the most decadent, moist, delicious dark chocolate cake using dove chocolates!! Everyone I know loves to eat this cake & say they want more !! I’d like to try another cake using dove dark chocolate & peppermint for Christmas ! I love reading the little quotes/notes on the foils & have kept several of them ! I will sometimes even give the foils to my husband as a little note for the day, he loves getting them !
I not only eat Dove Dark, I find ways to add it in baking. I made a chocolate cake with Dove Dark as the glaze for a friends Birthday, They all said it was to die for. Have chopped up the Dove dark and Raspberry and added that to a chocolate cake and made a glaze from that as well. I know make my own Hot Chocolate from Dark Dove Chocolate. yummm
I so Love Dove Dark Chocolate cause its the one chocolate I can eat that doesn’t give me migraines. just 2 pieces are
only chocolate indulgence I need to make it thru the day. Couldn’t ask for anything better.. Thanks for a Wonderful Product and not sacrificing changes over the years to ruin a good thing like others do to cut costs.
I ALWAYS keep Dove dark chocolate on hand. We have it every night after dinner. LOVE it!!!
I love making desserts with dark chocolate. My favorite is a “fudge” using mascarpone cheese & shaved dark chocolate. I place the mixture into a fluted pan for a pretty look. But my husband doesn’t care what it looks like! He just loves the taste.
Well, I like to eat the it. I like to savor each piece as slowly let it melt in my mouth.
To unwind from a long day of juggling work and 2 little boys! ‘Nuf said!

I love to eat a piece of Dove dark chocolate when I am stressed or reading a good book or just any plain old time. Also I like to melt it and use it to dip strawberries in or pretzel rods. YUM!
I love Dove dark chocolate. it is really good when you put some in hot chocolate. It makes hot chocolate tastes so much better
Eating Dove Dark Chocolate straight out of the freezer is the absolute BEST!
I like my dark Dove chocolates straight up with a glass of Pinot Noir. The perfect ending to any day!
I eat them when ever i want. I just place dove dark chocolate in my mouth and let it melt. I also like to take chocolate chip cookie dough and put dove dark chocolate in the middle then bake them. Then when they are still warm i’ll eat them and the chocolate will be nice and melted and smooth and gooey. Dove dark chocolate is best way to end the day!
<3

I use dove chocolate to dip strawberries in!
I love Dove chocolate, it is simply the best. I eat it all by itself, I use it in cooking, I eat it with strawberries and I share them with friends. I even used Dove chocolate at my wedding. I put them in small little boxes and had them at the tables for my guest. They were a big hit!
I keep it in the frig for a quick pick me up
I bring two to work each day.One for myself and one for my co-worker and we read the messages to eachother!
I don’t use it, I enjoy it! I love the rich flavor. I put it cereal, ice cream, and even enjoy it while drinking a cold Dr. Pepper. The fact that it’s good for me is just a bonus. I also love the little messages of hope and inspiration. Unlike a fortune cookie, they truly seem to address me personally. Thanks for making the best dark chocolate Dove!!
I eat them as they are (delicious, just by themselves), but I also like to pop one in my coffee. It gives the coffee a decadent, smooth flavour (definitely a treat!).
I am breastfeeding so at the end of a long day I eat some Dove dark chocolate as a reward for being a good Mommy!
Does it need to be “used,” or is eating it straight acceptable? Because I’m inclined to go with that…
I might even share. Although, I might consider apply the chocolate to different endeavors! The chocolate chip cookie idea above might not be a bad thing to try.
*applying
Stress day indulge n a trail mix of dark chocolate n mixed nuts love it!!!!!
I keep Dove Dark Chocolate in my kitchen at all times. It goes with me everywhere. I reach for it through out my day whenever I want a moment of quiet and pleasure. I love to watch my grand babies enjoy it too. A little vacation in a red wrapper!
Besides melting perfectly in your mouth, Dove Dark Chocolate melts wonderfully to make chocolate dipped strawberries and pretzels. Or chop some up and sprinkle over hot, fresh from the oven brownies and let melt into a fantastic glaze.
I cannot live without DOVE dark chocolate! I eat it everyday! I love the wonderful taste, the great feeling it gives me and the smile it leaves on my face!:)
Dove dark chocolate is our favorite! We always have a candy dish full of it or the choc rasberry. I sometimes take one to work to take the edge off. Otherwise we enjoy a few usually as dessert paired with some favorite wine or cheese. I have used the dove baking chocolate for some delicious baking projects and the chocolate balsamic dressing for salads! I love to read the inspirational messages inside. We love the seasonal wrappers/messages the best. Some of our favorites we will place in each others work bags to bring a smile:) Thanks Dove!!
I have been eating dove dark chocolate every day for the past 6 yrs. It is my favorite!!! I also have noticed that it has improved my cholesterol numbers and I read research has shown this to be true. I buy 2 bags each week and share some of it but would say I consume the most of it myself and would love to win this prize. Also I have baked small bundt cakes with it that were enjoyed by everyone. Thank you!
Dove dark chocolate is the best shared
with others. I love using it any way I can.
But for me the best part Is sharing it with my
Children. My 18 month old loves it as much
as his mom!
I eat Dove dark all the time and then I use it in some of my recipes. While always eating a little more. Dark chocolate is great and Dove helps satisfy that and then some because it is affordable.
My husband and I have a piece of Dove dark every evening as we catch up on the day. dove dark is definately the favorite of the whole family- always have it in the candy jar!
Dove dark chocolate is my favorite.
