This is a true Southern treat. My grandmother used to make it when she watched us and we would eat it in bowls like pudding. When I married, my husband's family surprised me by treating it like regular gravy. Make up some home made biscuits, butter them up real well, and then dip or cover them in this yummy Chocolate Gravy.
I know, it sounds gross right. But it isn't.
And my children consider it a special treat when they get to have some for breakfast. I don't make it often -it is very sweet -but when I do, they are willing to do just about anything I ask. And it's very easy. No wonder we love it 'round here.
Chocolate Gravy
2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons cocoa
pinch of salt
butter or margarine
Blend together (a whisk works best) in a saucepan all except butter/margarine. Heat on medium to low heat blending and watching carefully (this burns very easily) until it reaches the desired thickness. Place a pat of butter or margarine on top and allow to melt.
