For an extra layer of flavor, try adding diced tomatoes or pomegranate seeds to the guacamole. If you prefer a milder taste, reduce the amount of chipotle peppers.
These bites can be assembled just before serving to keep the chips crispy. Store any leftover guacamole in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed against the surface to prevent browning.
