WHEN I WAS A KID WE ALWAYS LOVED GOING TO MY GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE IN ARKANSAS NOT JUST BECAUSE SHE WAS THE BEST GRANDMA BUT SHE MADE US KIDS CHOCOLATE GRAVY!
4 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
3-4 Tbsp cocoa powder
3 Tbsp sugar
1 1/2 c whole milk

Steps:

  • 2. Stir mixture into butter and cook for about a minute. Slowly add milk as you would any other gravy. Stir constantly until thickened.
  • 3. Serve over biscuits for breakfast. The grandkids loved this treat,

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is recommended.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of milk. Whole milk will give the gravy a richer flavor, while skim milk will make it lighter.
  • If you want a thicker gravy, add a cornstarch slurry. To make a slurry, whisk together equal parts cornstarch and water until smooth. Then, stir it into the gravy until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Serve the chocolate gravy immediately over biscuits, waffles, or pancakes. It can also be used as a topping for ice cream or fruit.

Conclusion:

Chocolate gravy is a delicious and versatile Southern dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy chocolate, give chocolate gravy a try.
