This recipe is an old standard found on most Hershey's cocoa containers for years.  Cocoa is highly nutritious.  A large portion of the "chocolate" products on the market have very little chocolate.  If chocolate is your vice, this isn't a bad choice.  Splenda or xylitol can be substituted for those who seriously must avoid actual sugar overload.
