-Molasses is approved on the THM plan in small amounts (up to ¼ teaspoon per serving) for flavor. Combined with
THM Super Sweet Blend it mimics a brown sugar flavor in this chili.
-Canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce do contain a small amount of sugar, but the amount per serving in this chili is very small. I like La Costena brand available at Walmart.
-The smoked paprika, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, and liquid smoke are all essential elements of the “smoke” flavor in this chili. Don’t leave ‘em out! The chili does have a little kick of heat, but nothing too overwhelming (at least to my taste buds, and I’m a heat wimp).
