1/2 oz baking chocolate, chopped
2 whole cloves
1 (2-inch piece stick cinnamon
1/4 to 1/2 cup regular grind coffee
1 tsp vanilla extract

Heat water
Add piloncillo, chocolate, cloves & cinnamon stick
Bring to a full boil; reduce heat & simmer, uncovered, for 15 min
Stir in coffee or add coffee in a bouquet garni bag for easy removal
Remove from heat & let st& for 5 min

Stir in vanilla extract
Strain through a double thickness of cheesecloth or, better yet, use a bouquet garni bag for the coffee, then just remove the bag of grounds
Serve immediately
