Today was Day #7 of Chocolate and Chili Theme Week, and we're going out with a bang.
This 60% dark chocolate, Aztec Aphrodisiac bar, incorporated a "secret mix of chilis and spices." It registered somewhere in the medium spicy range, with evenly distributed and well-balanced heat and flavor.
The dark chocolate base was rich-tasting, and could easily pass for 70% (a higher) cacao percentage -- another example of where cacao percentages are just a starting point. Dark fans, don't skip over a bar just because of this % number. Try it first.
