Mexican Hot Chocolate Brownies image

Simple brownies made with Mexican hot chocolate disks. Great way to use them up! Enjoy! This recipe was borne from a desire to use up Mexican hot chocolate discs, which have a lot of sugar and some oil already. I used Ibarra® brand and the brownies were fantastic with a mild cinnamon flavor. I wouldn't try to substitute this ingredient.
