This home-made sugar-free hot chocolate recipe is a great treat on a cold day. For the low-fat version, omit the optional chocolate square and use non-fat milk.

- ⅛ tsp cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp nonfat milk or soy milk

Directions
- Add cocoa, sweetener, cinnamon, and chocolate square (optional) to a mug.

- Stir mixture well, making sure that the chocolate square has melted (if using).
- Add vanilla and milk.
* We used a square of Lindt Excellence 99% Cacao chocolate bar (pictured).
