No kitchen? No problem. This recipe only requires an electric tea kettle, a bowl, a knife or scissors, and a paper plate. This recipe comes out fragrant, spicy, and full of flavor.

Cinnamon sugar snowflake cookies with rich and creamy cocoa
Warm cinnamon and sugar pairs perfectly dipped in this ultra-rich cocoa, which almost acts as a sauce. This cozy dessert is pretty, fancy enough for Shabbat but fun and relaxed enough for a snow day. The cocoa is very rich so the portion here would be a small mug or half a large mug with…
