Adapted from an old recipe my mother used for family gatherings. Because you make it in a Crock Pot® it is easy to transport to a party. It's flavorful and I promise everyone will ask for this recipe.

Easy to make and delicious! I used dark chocolate and it gave the chili a really rich flavor. Will definitely make this again.

I'm not usually a fan of chocolate in savory dishes, but this chili was surprisingly good! The chocolate added a nice depth of flavor without being overpowering.

Just made this chili for my family and it was a big success! Everyone loved the rich, complex flavor. The chocolate added a subtle sweetness that really balanced out the heat from the chili powder.

This Mexican Chocolate Chili was a huge hit at my last dinner party! The unique combination of flavors from the chocolate and chili powder was a real crowd-pleaser. I'll definitely be making this again.
