3-inch cinnamon sticks
20 ounces bittersweet chocolate (your favorite), broken into chunks
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Combine the milk and cinnamon sticks in a 3

saucepan.
Place over medium heat and stir constantly to heat until steamy and just
beginning to bubble around the edges. Reduce heat to low and simmer
for 10 minutes to infuse the cinnamon flavor into the milk. Stir in the
chocolate chunks. When chocolate is melted, remove cinnamon sticks
and stir in vanilla extract. Insert the blender and process about 1 minute
using a gentle up-and-down motion. Continue blending until the mixture is
creamy and frothy. Spoon into cups or mugs and top with a dollop of
freshly whipped cream if desired.
For Hot Cinnamon Mocha, add 3–4 tablespoons instant espresso powder
to the milk when steeping with the cinnamon sticks.
