Old Fashion Chocolate Gravy

July 11, 2009

There are no pics with this post because simply, most of it was gone pretty fast.

But this morning I wanted chocolate gravy really bad, I haven't had it since my grandparents brought some mix back from Arkansas years ago, so I found a easy recipe and whipped some up. It's really sweet, ole Jeremy doesn't do sweet in the morning, but I had to have it anyway.

Chocolate Gravy:

1 1/4 c milk
1 c sugar
1 tbsp flour
1 tbsp coco powder
pinch of salt{brings the flavor out in sweets well}
1 tbsp butter

Mix everything together {except butter} in a sauce pan and whisk until it comes to a boil. Add butter.

I had to let mine boil a bit more than the recipes I saw so that it got to the thickness I like gravy at. Also I put a little more flour in than a tbsp, I just thought it didn't sound like enough. But it came out really well, I am tempted to dip some strawberries in it...but I may hold off and save it for breakfast tomorrow.

  1. This sounds really good! I didn't know that you're so into cooking. Lots of people I know just go out to eat nowadays because they're so busy, don't know how to cook, or both! So, it's nice to know that I know someone who puts love into cooking! I'm going to have to use some of your recipes one day!

  2. We have a family recipe of chocolate gravy too that we enjoy. It has been handed down from my daddy's mom to my mom to me and I included it on an index card of family recipes for Brittany's wedding shower. I will have to remind her to cook it for Natalie soon. My mom cooked it for Natalie yesterday morning. She LOVE IT and wanted it for supper too!
