- 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, cut into bits
- 4 cups strong brewed coffee
- a 2 1/2-inch cinnamon stick, broken into pieces
- sugar to taste
- 1/2 cup well chilled heavy cream
- ground cinnamon to taste
- In a saucepan combine the chocolate, the coffee, and the cinnamon stick and heat the mixture over very low heat, stirring, until the chocolate is melted. Stir in the sugar and chill the mixture until it is cold. In a chilled bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream until it holds soft peaks. Strain the chocolate mixture and divide it among tall glasses. Top the drinks with the whipped cream and sprinkle them with cinnamon.
