Cinnamon Mocha Hot Chocolate

This homemade cinnamon mocha hot chocolate takes the classic hot chocolate to the next level. Thick, creamy, and delicious it takes just five minutes to make using my hot chocolate mix with real chocolate

One of our family's favorite drinks in winter is, of course, hot chocolate. And, what better than to make it a mocha with a dash of cinnamon. Cinnamon has a way of making those warm drinks extra special. Don't you agree?

• Milk - I use dairy 3% milk. Almond, coconut, or soy would be delicious too.
• Hot Chocolate mix - You can use a store-bought hot chocolate mix but if you make my recipe with real chocolate you will never buy store-bought again
• Cinnamon - just a little goes a long way.
• Coffee - This is what gives us the mocha flavor but I like to add just ½ cup. If you like a stronger flavor you can use espresso as well.

Step by step instructions

• Lightly moisten the rim of the glass cups with water, then dip them in cocoa powder -Set aside (optional)
• In a heavy-bottom saucepan add the hot chocolate mix and coffee.
• Gradually add the milk whisking simultaneously to combine
• Place the saucepan on medium heat and let come to a boil.
• Reduce the heat and continue to stir on medium to low for 2 minutes until it comes to a boil
• The mixture will thicken slightly because there is cornstarch in the chocolate mix.
• Pour into individual serving cups
• Garnish with a cinnamon stick and grated chocolate.
