CHEF JOHN'S CHILI CHOCOLATE COOKIES
Just like adding a pinch of salt to dessert recipes makes them even sweeter and more delicious, the addition of pepper in this cookie really makes the chocolate even more chocolaty. The cookies aren't really spicy, but you can definitely tell something strange and wonderful is happening.

CHILI WITH CHORIZO AND CHOCOLATE
The smokiness of the bacon and liquid smoke complements the spiciness of the chorizo and sweetness of the chocolate in this chili. Just like any other chili, this is better the next day. Serve with a dollop of cilantro sour cream or some chocolate shavings.

GROUND BEEF CHILI WITH CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER
Making use of a well-stocked pantry, this weeknight chili takes inspiration from the flavor profile of mole negro, an Oaxacan sauce made with chiles and chocolate that traditionally takes a full day to make, but results in a pot full of depth and nuance in less than an hour. It relies upon ground beef or turkey, and uses canned chiles in adobo, paprika and ancho chili powder for heat, plus a mix of warm spices, chocolate in two forms, and a little bit of peanut butter to round it out. In essence, this recipe is another variation of the combination of sweet and heat.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium. Add onion and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion starts to soften and become translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add chiles, cocoa powder and spices, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add ground meat and cook, breaking apart with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add tomatoes and their juices, beer and stock to the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the temperature to a simmer, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until the flavors meld a bit.
- Reduce heat to low (if not already there), then stir in the beans, chocolate and peanut butter until beans are warmed through and chocolate has melted, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and serve with tortilla chips, cheese, avocado or whatever toppings you desire.
BLACK BEAN AND CHOCOLATE CHILI
I know the title seems somewhat bizarre, but the slight "hint" of semi-sweet chocolate gives this vegetarian chili a real depth of flavor. It reminds me somewhat of a sweet, yet spicy mole sauce. This recipe was adapted from one I found in the "Moosewood Restaurant Celebrates" cookbook.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onions become soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.
- Add the celery and chile, cover and cook for another five minutes more.
- Reduce the heat and stir in spices, (cumin, oregano, cinnamon, cloves, coriander, chili powder, black pepper, salt) along with the bell peppers. Cover again and cook for another five minutes. Stir often to keep the spices from burning. If the pan gets too dry add a little liquid from the diced tomatoes, or some water.
- Next, add the black beans, tomatoes, lime juice (if using) and soy sauce. Let the chili simmer on low for 5 to 10 minutes, until it thickens slightly and flavors combine.
- Stir in the chocolate. When chocolate has melted, taste to adjust the salt and pepper. Serve with topping of your choice. I like a bit of vegan cheese, sour "cream" and scallions.
- Chili can also makes a great filling to serve wrapped in flour tortillas, or in taco shells if you prefer.

CHOCOLATE CHILI
From Ortega's Mexican Fiesta booklet found on an end-cap at the supermarket. If I use mild taco seasoning and mild salsa my husband will eat bowls and bowl of this and for a man that hates chili this is saying a lot. Feel free to spice it up! Garnish this hearty dish with crumbled taco shells, shredded cheddar cheese, cilantro and diced fresh tomatoes. Yum!

CHILI'S CHOCOLATE DESSERT
This recipe is posted by request. The original poster of this recipe is Todd Wilbur. What makes this dessert so special is the way it comes to your table sizzling in a cast iron skillet. Just like fajitas. The chocolate chip cookie and graham cracker crust "pie" is topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and then drizzled with chocolate and caramel syrup. It's all served up in a hot skillet of cinnamon butter. Yum! If you want to prepare this one just like they do at the restaurant, you'll need one of those skillets for each serving. Small iron skillets work the best, but any 6 or 8-inch frying pan will do fine. You just have to be sure your pan is super hot to get that authentic Chili's "sizzle." If you don't have enough of the right pans for each serving, you can slide it all onto a plate. It may not have the sizzle of the real thing, but it'll still taste awesome! ENJOY!

SPICY VEGETARIAN CHOCOLATE CHILI (CROCK POT - IF DESIRED)
This is a slightly sweet, yet pretty spicy chili that is sure to please even the non-vegetarian chili lover! I challenge anyone who says "EWWWW! Chocolate and Chili??" to try this! It is delicious! You can make it not so spicy by using cutting back chilies. To crock pot you can make the chili a day or two in advance and refrigerate until you are ready to start the crock pot. You can make serving this more fun, by buying individual sized bread bowls or large crusty French rolls. Cut out wedge along top of the bread, hollow out the middle; put bread on a plate and spoon in the chili. Top with desired toppings and serve.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of the dish, so use the best quality chocolate you can find. A good dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% will give you the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the chili: Chili is a slow-cooked dish, but you don't want to overcook it. The meat should be tender and the vegetables should still have a little bit of bite to them.
- Add the chocolate at the end: This will help to prevent the chocolate from burning and will also allow it to melt and blend with the other ingredients.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Chili is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, cheese, onions, and avocado.
