- Cocoa powder unsweetened - 1 tbsp
- Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp
- Sugar - 1 tbsp or to taste
- Cinnamon powder - a fat pinch

Take a heavy bottom pan. Add cocoa powder, milk, cinnamon powder, vanilla essence to it. Stir and mix well with a whisk.
Put it on the heat and bring it to a boil. Keep stirring continously with whisk till it boils, to avoid any burning at the bottom.
Once it reaches a boil, put the heat off and add sugar and mix it well.
Pour the hot chocolate mix in 2 cups.
Garnish (optional) - Add a dollop of whipped cream on top of the hot chocolate. Sprinkle a very small pinch of cinnamon powder and cocoa powder. Add few marshmallows.
