Add chocolate and cook until reduced to a sauce consistency about 10 minutes.


Sprinkle with salt and pepper.


SWEET POTATO CHIPS

Slice sweet potatoes thinly and rinse under cold water until water runs clear.


Pat dry and add to fryer; cook until golden orange.


Transfer to paper towel and season with pumpkin spice to taste.


BURGER


Pre-heat grill to high heat.


Combine sausage and ground chuck.


Divide burgers into 4 equal portions, 8 ounces each.


Make a deep impression in the center of each burger, using your thumb.


Brush the burgers on both sides with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.


Grill burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides.


About a minute before removing burgers from grill, top with Muenster cheese and melt.


Transfer to toasted rolls and top burger with mole sauce, tomato, onion and lettuce.
