I love chili especially on a cold night to warm up the body and chocolate to nourish the soul. With this recipe from www.bakedbree.com you can have the best of both worlds. With chocolate you add a new dimension of taste you would not have imagined. Make it an evening for two in front of the fire place and remember a bottle of red wine. Enjoy!

3. Cook the onion and spice mixture for a minute or two. Take the chorizo out of the casing and add to the pot.
4. Add the beef and cook until it starts to brown.
5. Add the beans, tomato paste, ketchup, diced tomato, and water. Bring the chili to a boil.
6. Once the chili comes to a bubble, add the chocolate chips. Stir the chips in until they melt. Cover the pot and put in a preheated 300 degree oven. Cook the chili for 3 more hours. Give a taste and check to see if you need salt and pepper.
7. Top with cheese and cilantro.
