For a richer flavor, try using a combination of ground beef and ground pork. Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of spiciness. For a milder chili, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper altogether. Adding a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder can deepen the flavor and add a subtle richness to the chili. Serve with your favorite toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped onions, and a dollop of guacamole.
