Ingredients

1 servings

•

¾ cup fat free half-and-half
•

¼ cup whipping cream
•

¼ cup fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (preferably 70% cacao), finely chopped
•

2 tablespoons white sugar

•

½ teaspoon vanilla extract
•

1 pinch ground cinnamon
•

¼ cup red wine

Instructions

Combine 1/2 of the half-and-half and 1/2 of the cream into a saucepan over low heat. Add chopped chocolate to the warmed cream mixture, whisking constantly (to prevent scalding) until chocolate is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in remaining half-and-half, remaining cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
Add red wine and allow to bubble for about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a coffee mug to serve.
