    List of Ingredients





    1 1/2 c Espresso beans
    3 c Boiling water
    2 tb Sugar
    1 Vanilla bean, split
    4 c Milk
    4 oz. bittersweet chocolate chopped
    Whipped cream - optional Instructions:

    Recipe




    In a coffee mill, finely grind the beans.
    In a coffee maker, brew the espresso with the boiling water.
    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
    Using a small knife, scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean into a medium saucepan. Pour in the milk and scald over moderate heat, about 5 minutes.
    Remove from heat, add chocolate and stir until melted. Cover and keep warm over very low heat.
    Divide the hot espresso into 4 cups.
    In a blender, begin whipping half of the warm chocolate milk at low speed. Gradually increase the speed to high and blend until frothy, about 1 minute.
    Pour the chocolate milk into the cups of coffee, stir briefly and top each serving with some of the milk froth.
    Sprinkle the reserved cinnamon sugar on top.
    Serve
