Candy Cane Mocha!

Start the New Year off right by keeping five bucks in your pocket and make this at home! It is warm, richly comforting, and so delicious. Just as good as the Starbucks Peppermint Mocha, if you as us :) And you've got even more of a reason to make this if you got stuck with a bunch of candy canes over Christmas and you have no idea what to do with them!

Candy Cane Mocha

Serves 1

You will need:

1 cup prepared coffee with milk or cream or however you would normally make it
2 tablespoons finely chopped milk chocolate, or semi-sweet choc chips
1 teaspoon candy cane bits
Optional - 1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
Optional 1 tablespoon whipped cream
Optional - cinnamon for sprinkling

Heat coffee, chocolate, candy cane bits, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring to ensure chocolate melts evenly and doesn't stick to the bottom. When warmed through, pour into a mug, top with whipped cream and cinnamon. Enjoy!
