SPECIAL HOT CHOCOLATE
1 (6 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1/2 c. sugar
1/3 c. water
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. whipping cream
Hot milk
Combine chocolate morsels, sugar, water, and cinnamon in large measuring cup. Microwave at medium 2 to 3 minutes or until chocolate is melted, stirring twice during cooking. Cool to lukewarm.
Whip cream in small mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Gradually whip in cooled chocolate mixture. Chill. Chocolate mixture keeps well in refrigerator in covered container up to 1 week.
For individual servings of hot chocolate, place 1 cup milk in serving mug. Microwave at high 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Do not boil. Stir in 1 rounded tablespoon chocolate mixture until smooth. Chocolate mixture will yield 15 to 18 cups of hot chocolate.
