Its not really that hot, if you take into account the quantities its pretty tame, myself I double the cayenne pepper because I do like it hot, the heat only comes after the sweet ends, ancho chili power does not have a lot of heat its the cayenne pepper that adds all the heat, try cutting that in half and it is tame enough for anyone.
