Cinnamon lends warming complexity to this comforting, creamy cold-weather drink. For a little pick-me-up, a splash of rum certainly wouldn't hurt.

Yield Makes 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 (3") cinnamon sticks
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/2 cups whole milk, divided
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 ounces high-quality white chocolate, chopped or white chocolate chips (about 1/3 cup)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Unsweetened whipped cream and ground cinnamon (for serving)

Steps:

  • Toast cinnamon sticks in a medium dry saucepan over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add salt and 2 cups milk and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and let steep 10 minutes.
  • Whisk cornstarch and remaining 1/2 cup milk in a small bowl. Add to warm milk mixture and heat over medium. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly, until warmed through, about 1 minute.

I'm allergic to cinnamon, so I substituted nutmeg. It turned out great!

This drink is way too thick. I had to add more milk to make it drinkable.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use more spices, like nutmeg or ginger.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my white hot chocolate turned out grainy. I think I may have overheated the milk.

I'm not a big fan of white chocolate, but this recipe changed my mind. The cinnamon flavor really balanced out the sweetness.
