Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Hot Chocolate

• 1 mug of your favorite hot cocoa, prepared: Whether you opt for a rich homemade concoction or a quick mix, ensure it’s your preferred choice as the base of this decadent drink.
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon: This warm spice is the star of the show, imparting that unmistakable cinnamon roll essence.
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract: A touch of vanilla enhances the flavors, adding depth and sweetness to your cocoa.

For the Drizzle Sauce

• 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar: This fine sugar creates a smooth and velvety drizzle that mimics the icing of a cinnamon roll.
• 1/2 tbsp milk: Just enough to blend the sugar into a pourable consistency.
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon: To infuse the drizzle with that signature cinnamon warmth.

Optional Toppings

• Whipped cream: For an extra layer of creaminess and a visually appealing topping.
• Sprinkles: Add a pop of color and festive flair.
• Mini marshmallows: Classic hot chocolate companions that add sweetness and texture.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Drizzle

In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar, milk, and cinnamon until smooth. The mixture should be thick enough to drizzle, but not too runny. Adjust the milk quantity if necessary to achieve the desired consistency. Set this aside as you prepare the rest of your drink.

Step 2: Make the Hot Chocolate

Prepare your favorite hot cocoa according to your usual method. Once ready, stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. This simple addition transforms your regular hot chocolate into a cinnamon roll delight, infusing each sip with a cozy, aromatic warmth.

Step 3: Assemble Your Drink

Pour your cinnamon-vanilla cocoa into a mug. If using, top generously with whipped cream to create a luscious, creamy crown.

Step 4: Add the Drizzle

Using a spoon, drizzle your prepared cinnamon sauce over the whipped cream and let it cascade into the mug. This sweet touch mimics the icing drizzle on a freshly baked cinnamon roll, amplifying the dessert-like quality of your drink.

Step 5: Garnish and Enjoy

Finish your creation with optional sprinkles for a dash of color or mini marshmallows for extra sweetness. Each addition enhances the visual appeal and taste of your hot chocolate.

Tips for the Perfect Cinnamon Roll Hot Chocolate

• Customize Your Cocoa: Feel free to experiment with different types of hot chocolate bases. Dark, milk, or even white chocolate can all serve as delightful foundations for this recipe.
• Spice It Up: If you’re a spice enthusiast, consider adding a tiny pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the cocoa for an added layer of warmth.
• Presentation Matters: Serve in a clear mug to showcase the beautiful layers and toppings, making your creation Instagram-worthy.
