Ice Cream with Cocoa and Cinnamon

After writing yesterday's post, and thinking about Wise Acres custard served in a mason jar topped with hot fudge...I had an overwhelming craving for dessert of the chocolate kind. I began to peruse hot fudge recipes online, only to realize that I lacked all the necessary ingredients and I was looking for less of a time gap between "no chocolate in my life" and "chocolate in my life."

Enter into the chocolate-less equation, this simple little recipe inspiration from my mom. Vanilla ice cream, sprinkled with cocoa powder and cinnamon. 

It is an incredibly easy and delicious way to satisfy a desserty/chocolate craving (yes, desserty is a word). Is it a glamorous and rich hot fudge sundae that I would serve at a dinner party? Definitely not. Is it a wonderful concoction that I would serve to a dinner party of 1? Definitely yes. 

What are your weekday go-to dessert recipes? And...do you know of a good hot fudge sauce recipe? If so, please pass that chocolate knowledge this way :)
