Well you know, if people in Mexico can eat turkey with mole sauce, why not squirrel with chocolate sauce?

Mole sauce? You mean like actually the animal kind?

No , the Mexican kind, pronounced "Mo-lay".

"Mole poblano is prepared with dried chile peppers (commonly ancho, pasilla, mulato and chipotle), ground nuts and/or seeds(almonds, indigenous peanuts, and/or sesame seeds), spices, Mexican chocolate (cacao ground with sugar and cinnamon and occasionally nuts), salt, and a variety of other ingredients including charred avocado leaves."

'Mole' comes from a native Mexican word meaning 'sauce'.

thanks for clearing that up. You learn something new everyday
Mole sauce sounds yum too!

That's why TimberWolf's recipe is not so unusual as it sounds at first!

Now to find me a squirrel....!
