Author Notes:

This recipe was given to us by Chef Jesse Perez of Francesca's at Sunset, the signature restaurant at Westin's La Cantera Resort in San Antonio, Texas. Jesse is one of the most talented young chefs we've discovered lately (2005), and his influence, under the tutelage of Super Chef Mark Miller, has turned Francesca's at Sunset into one of San Antonio's finest restaurants.

Jesse serves this unique mole sauce with one of his signature desserts -- Canela Vanilla panna Cotta
