1/4 cup corn syrup
3 T. water
1/4 tsp. Makara Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup whipping cream
3/4 tsp. Makara Cinnamon
4 cups milk
In a small saucepan,
stir chocolate, corn syrup and water over low heat until
chocolate melts and mixture is smooth and no bits of chocolate
remain. Stir in Makara Cinnamon and vanilla.
Chill. Beat cream until almost stiff. Stir in 3/4 tsp. Makara
