What is so different about Mexican chocolate, you ask? Well, looking at the ingredients, you can&#8217;t tell. Nothing looks out-of-the-ordinary. But it tastes out of&nbsp;this world. It has a deep, complex flavor which&nbsp;is only enhanced by the addition of cinnamon.<\/p>\n<p>You can buy Mexican chocolate at the store in the ethnic foods section (where they keep the Asian and Mexican foods together). It is called &#8220;Abuelita&#8221; and it looks like this:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/icecreaminspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Abuelita-Mexican-chocolate.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-617\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-617\" src=\"http:\/\/icecreaminspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Abuelita-Mexican-chocolate-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Abuelita Mexican chocolate\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icecreaminspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Abuelita-Mexican-chocolate-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/icecreaminspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Abuelita-Mexican-chocolate.jpg 600w, https:\/\/icecreaminspiration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Abuelita-Mexican-chocolate-300x450.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you make my Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream, you melt the chocolate in milk. For these cookies, you just grate the chocolate (which pretty much turns into powder). This will substitute for any cocoa powder you commonly would have used in chocolate cookies.<\/p>\n<p>These cookies are nice and thick. You really feel like you are getting your money&#8217;s worth with these hefty cookies.<\/p>\n<p>Most people just know about Mexican Wedding Cookies. Now you know about Mexican Chocolate cookies. They are the best Mexican cookies you will ever eat.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also got a totally different version of Mexican Chocolate Cookies that are super dark and soft. <a
