Chocolate Gravy
Maybe chocolate gravy sounds a little crazy, but I love it, my kids love it and as far as I know everyone that tries it, loves it. Imagine warm chocolate pudding. My great-grandmother made this with canned biscuits and my mom always made it with homemade biscuits. It is a real treat, your kids will beg for you to make this again and again. Not really calorie friendly, but extra yummy!
Ingredients:
3 cups milk
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup all purpose flour
dash salt
2 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Cooking Directions:
Melt 1 tablespoon butter, add cocoa, stirring until a paste is formed. In a small bowl, mix flour and sugar together and add to paste a little at a time, alternating with milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and stir until thick. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon butter and vanilla. Serve over warm biscuits.
Enjoy!

I saw this link over at your biscuit post and had to come check it out. My wife’s family grew up with something similar; her Volga German grandma used to bake the remainder of any bierock dough as rolls resting upon a makeshift chocolate sauce/pudding. I know it was a dish concocted from necessity to use up the bread; gotta wonder if the two ideas evolved mutually or if they came form the same place and there was some sort of divergence. Local food history’s always a bit of a mystery. Thanks for the link!
