Ingredients

1. Weight the chocolate and then break into small pieces. Put pices in the top of a double broiler or into a heat-proof bowl.

1. Fill bottom of double broiler or a large saucepan with cold water. Bring the water to a boil. Turn the heat down to keep water gently boiling.

1. Place the container with the chocolate over the one with the boiling water. Stir the chocolate with a wooden spoon until melted.

1. Measure out the milk and pout it into another saucepan. Heat the milk gently; don't let it boil. Pour the melted chocolate into the hot milk.

1. Add the cinnamon and vanilla essence to the mixture and bring it to a boil.

1. Turn the heat down and whisk the mixture for 2 minutes until it is foaming.

1. Pour the chocolate into mugs and use a small whisk to foam the chocolate mixture in each mug.
