My Thoughts:
If you want it spicier add more chipotle peppers, which are found in the ethnic section of the supermarket. You may also want to serve this with more chips on the side as the chips on the bottom of the dish soften up. Definitely expose the chips on the top layer so you have some crispiness with each bite.
