Cacao-Mint Roast Lamb

Easter lamb is given some of the attention reserved for the treats in the baskets, when it is rubbed with cocoa, mint and a bit of coffee. This recipe will work with whatever size lamb is needed for your dinner. You may need to adjust the amount of rub you create. Plan on about 3/4 pound of meat per person, for plenty including leftovers.
