Super Easy Fast Chicken Mole Sauce

Submitted by Spit In Soup

"This stuff is amazingly good and inexpensive - with none of the hassle (grinding nuts? Who has time?) of making mole from scratch. This is a good sauce - slightly sweet, not bitter. Buy the jarred mole and mexican hot chocolate in the international food aisle of your grocery store."
