3 cinnamon sticks
20 whole cloves
5 ounces imported milk chocolate, chopped
2 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped

1/2 cup chilled whipping cream

3. Meanwhile, beat cream, pinch of nutmeg, 1 tablespoon sugar and ‡ teaspoon vanilla in small bowl until soft peaks form.
