Ingredients

1/4 cup masa, harina, (flour for corn tortillas)
2 cups cold water
1 tablet , (2 ounces) mexican chocolate, , broken into pieces
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (Mexican canela or Ceylon variety preferred)
2 small cones piloncillo, or 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk to blend the masa harina with about 1/2 cup of the water. Add remaining water and whisk very well. Let stand about 5 minutes, whisking 3 to 4 times. Pour the masa-water through a fine-mesh strainer into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil over low heat, whisking constantly, 6 to 8 minutes, or until thickened.

2. Add the chocolate pieces, cinnamon, and sugar to the masa mixture and continue whisking constantly until the chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Keep the heat low or medium-low to prevent scorching. Add the milk gradually, whisking all the while, and cook until the champurrado is creamy and steaming hot. Serve at once.
