Cinnamon Mocha Coffee

Most store-bought flavored coffees are expensive. Here's a special early-morning beverage you can make at home. The aroma of cinnamon and cocoa makes this mocha coffee hard to resist.

Ingredients
•    1/3 cup ground coffee (not instant coffee granules)
•    3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•    1 cup 2% milk
•    2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
•    2 tablespoons baking cocoa
•    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•    4 cinnamon sticks, optional
•    Whipped cream, optional

Directions

1. In a coffeemaker basket, combine the coffee and ground cinnamon. Prepare 4 cups brewed coffee according to manufacturer's directions.
2. Meanwhile, combine the milk, sugar, cocoa and vanilla in a saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes or until small bubbles appear on the sides of the pan, stirring occasionally (do not boil). Pour hot milk mixture into four coffee cups, then add cinnamon-flavored coffee. Garnish with cinnamon sticks and whipped cream if desired.
