My son and husband love this hearty side dish. It's quick and easy to prepare but yet so flavorful. Chocolate, chili and honey mingle to create a rich, savory flavor that's not too spicy and not too sweet. —Roxanne Chan, Albany, California

Test Kitchen tips

Although this dish is great with several different types of beans, it would be equally good with just one.

You could add 2 to 3 cups of broth to make a festive mole chili.
