Very,very delicious! I didn't use the cinnamon. Instead,when it was finished,added a peppermint,and it melted in the hot chocolate. Perfect mixture and taste :)

Sipping this as I write, it is quite good. I think it would be better if it had more of a cinnamon taste. If I make this again I will add some cinnamon to the cocoa mixture as well.

Super easy to make and very yummy. I used splenda and soy milk (and omitted the vanilla since it was vanilla soy milk). I also admit to using a few more marshmallows because I love em! Nice and one I'll repeat a lot this winter.
