This is a Pampered Chef recipe.....I recently made this for Thanksgiving...my in-laws love anything having to do with coffee, and it was a big hit. Tastes a little like Tiramisu without the liquor flavor. It's really YUMMY!

2 1/2 cups milk

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 ounce semisweet chocolate

3. Pour 1 cup of the milk mixture a measuring cup; set aside. Add pudding mix to remaining milk mixture in.
