Cinnamon Hot Chocolate
Stay warm this winter with homemade cinnamon hot chocolate! With vanilla, semisweet chocolate, and toasty cinnamon, this cocoa is rich, creamy, chocolatey, and beyond delicious. This is one of my favorite recipes for holiday parties, winter brunches, and snowy adventures!

Heat the milk mixture until it's hot and there are just a couple of small bubbles on the surface (don't let it come to a simmer). Remove the pan from the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for about 2 minutes.
