This chili is so good! The smokiness from the chipotle peppers is perfect and the peanut butter adds a nice richness. I served it with cornbread and it was a perfect meal.

This chili is easy to make and packed with flavor. The smokiness from the chipotle peppers is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the peanut butter. I served it with sour cream and avocado and it was a hit!

I'm not a huge fan of chili, but this recipe changed my mind. The peanut butter adds a creaminess and richness that I didn't expect. I'll definitely be making this again.
