The other night we had guests over and didn't want to cook, so we ordered Chicken and Mole "to go" from the local Mexican restaurant. It was terrible! It was runny and tasteless. So my husband requested that I make my own version of the dish that I used to do before we cut out meat. OK. I dug through my recipes, but couldn't find the one that I used to make from scratch. I've settled for making a dark, chocolate mole using Goya's mole concentrate and adding some stock and chile sauce...and maybe a few extra spices. It will be good, but not as amazing as the one from scratch.

Does anyone have an authentic recipe for chocolate mole? What about yellow mole? Pipian Sauce? If so, please share.

Thanks,

.....totally out if my league.....I guess non-Mexican Midwesterners are not that deep into that cuisine..or maybe just the few Mexican restaurants I have gone too......will be interesting to see responses......

Love Mexican food. Allrecipes has tons of recipes.

I made it last night and the DH was in heaven. It came out pretty good IMHO. The trick to getting it thick and creamy is to tear up a couple of corn tortillas and toss them into the sauce as it is cooking. I also added some more cinnamon and cumin to it to give it a flavor boost.

I have made it with adding a touch of peanut butter. Sounds weird but it really gives it a good flavor.
