Instructions

  1. Add the milk, heavy cream, and cocoa powder to a large pot and whisk well until smooth.
  2. Cook to 180 degrees in a saucepan over medium heat measuring with a thermometer.
  3. If you don't have a thermometer you need to stop well before it comes to a boil, stir well and stop as soon as it's too hot to sample a spoonful.
  4. Turn off the heat and whisk in the chocolate chips, salt, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg and cayenne pepper.
  5. Serve with cinnamon sticks, a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon.
