I found this recipe to be very confusing. The instructions were not clear and I ended up making a lot of mistakes.

This soup was way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much water.

I'm not a big fan of mole sauce, but this soup was surprisingly good. The chocolate flavor is very subtle and it's not at all spicy.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few extra potatoes after Thanksgiving and this is the perfect way to use them up.

I served this soup with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect meal. It's also great as a leftover lunch the next day.

I added a little bit of cayenne pepper to the soup to give it a little bit of a kick. It was the perfect amount of heat.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but this soup changed my mind! The chocolate flavor really balances out the sweetness of the potatoes.
