Chocolate Five Spice

This is a twist on Mexican Chocolate, which combines chocolate with cinnamon and spicy pepper.



I added ginger, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cayenne to a Ghirardelli dark chocolate base. It was a big hit at this weekend's barbecue. What I found interesting is that different people's taste palettes picked up on different flavors. Some people tasted mostly cinnamon, others tasted the nutmeg. But everyone experienced the chili heat at the end of each bite.
