Maine Goodies Humpty Dumpty All Dressed Chips

Hershey’s Hugs

My favourite drinking chocolate is Choc o’lait and it is to die for. It has a rich chocolate flavour that you would swear goes straight to your hips and thighs but is actually 99%fat free. In fact there are just 42 calories or 175 kilojules in a cup …
