Superb Hot Chocolate

Directions

1. 1
   Melt chocolate bits in a double boiler over hot water and stir in the cream.
2. 2
   Heat just to boiling point, stirring constantly.
3. 3
   Add the cinnamon and serve in 8-ounce chocolate cups topped with flavored whipped cream.
4. 4
   For mint flavored chocolate, place a mint patty in the bottom of each cup before pouring in the hot chocolate.
5. 5
   For a less rich drink, use half milk and half cream, or plain whole milk in place of the heavy cream.
6. 6
   To vary the drink and make it slightly alcoholic, use 1 to 2 dashes Grand Marnier instead of cinnamon.
