This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

A nice way to have flavored coffee without adding a lot of calories. Coffee grounds are brewed with cinnamon sticks, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.

10 cups water
4 whole cinnamon sticks
3 teaspoons brown sugar
1 cup ground coffee
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Add the water to the reservoir of a drip-style coffee maker.
Place the cinnamon sticks and brown sugar in the coffee pot and place the pot in the coffee maker.
Add the ground coffee and the ground cinnamon to the brew basket.
Turn the machine on and let it brew. When it's brewed, gently stir the coffee to dissolve the brown sugar. Let the coffee sit for a few minutes to increase the intensity of the flavors, then serve in oversized coffee mugs (Texas-sized mugs!).
If you don't have a drip-style coffee maker you can still make a variation of this recipe. For single-serve pod-style coffee makers simply put a cinnamon stick and 1/2-1 teaspoon brown sugar (depending on how sweet you want it) in a mug and brew as normal. Sprinkle the brewed coffee with just a pinch of ground cinnamon and stir. It won't quite have the strong brewed flavor but it works in a pinch!

Loved the flavor infusion from the brewing process! It is a nice flavored coffee without being overly sweet or straying too far from the natural coffee flavors.

1-2 T of canned whipped cream was squirted on bottom of mug before adding the spcied up coffee. Perfect!!!!!!!!!!
