This easy to make Blueberry chocolate bark ice-cream is full of antioxidants thanks to the combination of blueberries and dark cacao. It has a creamy texture with a hint of vanilla coconut cream.

Dark chocolate is loaded with organic compounds that are biologically active and function as antioxidants. These include polyphenols, flavanols and catechins, among others. According to research, the polyphenols in dark chocolate may help lower some forms of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol when combined with other foods like almonds and cocoa. Raw dark cacao is best, especially if you can make yours from scratch. They key is not to confuse dark chocolate with commercial milk chocolate, there is a significant difference in the two. Normal cocoa powder and chocolate have been chemically processed and roasted, which destroys a large amount of the antioxidants and flavanols.
