Not Your Usual Chile (Mole Based)

I am a huge fan of Iron Chef and they kept making mole, so I just had to come up with a recipe for myself.

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1⁄2  chopped onion
• 3  minced garlic cloves
• 1  lb ground beef
• 1 (14 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 1 (14 ounce) can  drained black beans
• 1  tablespoon cocoa powder
• 1 -2  teaspoon cumin (or more to taste)
• 1 -2  hot sauce
• 1 -2  teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
• 1  tablespoon sugar
• 2  cups coffee

Directions

1. Brown hamburger in stock pot.
2. Add garlic and onions and cook until translucent.
3. Stir in cocoa, cumin, hot sauce and salt and stir until well dispersed.
4. Add tomato sauce and beans and mix thoroughly. Add coffee.
5. To cut bitterness of coffee, add 1 T of sugar or more depending on how strong you make your coffee.
6. Check flavor of chili. I like mine spicy, so I usually forgo measuring and just dump in as much cumin as possible. Makes a very meaty, manly chili.
