I needed some time to get some spring clean-up done, so to save some time, I decided on this Slow Cooker Chili with Chocolate Recipe. This is a simple recipe that doesn’t require a lot of prep time, and the slow cooking blends the flavors really well. I think this is the second chili dish I have had that has used chocolate as one of the ingredients, which doesn’t sound good in chili to me, but it’s very good. Give it a try, and enjoy.

Did I miss something? I didn’t see any chocolate in the recipe.
No you didn’t miss anything, I did, thanks for letting my know!! The chocolate has been added to the recipe.
My recipe still does not show chocolate? How much and when it is added??
Sorry you having a problem. 1 tablespoon semi sweet chocolate (shaved) While burger is cooking place the tomatoes, the rest of the garlic, chocolate, hot sauce, and chili beans into the slow cooker and add in the seasonings; salt and pepper to taste.
