Has any one ever heard of chocolate gravy?

Question

I ate this as a child in an Oklahoma grammar school a long time ago and I miss it. It was served with buttermilk biscuits.

Answer 1

Hi !!!
I LOVE this...

MOM'S CHOCOLATE GRAVY

1/2-3/4 cup granulated sugar (to taste)
1/3 cup Hershey's cocoa
7 tablespoons flour (or Wondra)
1 cup milk
1 12 oz. can evaporated milk
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

- Mix flour, sugar, cocoa, egg and a bit of the milk in a separate bowl. Set aside.
In a pan sprayed with Pam, heat the milk until warm. Turn on medium heat. Transfer the flour and egg mixture to the saucepan.
- Keep stirring as it thickens, so it won't stick or burn; reduce heat as necessary.
- When it reaches a pudding-like consistency, remove from heat.
- Stir in vanilla.
- Gravy thickens slightly when removed from heat.
- This is best prepared using an electric mixer or hand blender to help avoid any lumps.
- Yummy with biscuits!

******JUST A SUGGESTION...YOU CAN ALSO USE WARM (JUST OUT OF THE PAN) CHOCOLATE OR ANY FLAVORED PUDDING TO TOP -OFF YOUR BISCUITS, WHICH WOULD BE VERY TASTY & VERY EASY TO MAKE. BY THE WAY, MY MOM MADE BISCUITS WITH WARM VANILLA PUDDING EVERY SATURDAY MORNING WHEN I WAS A KID.

Answer 2

Its a southern thing. You use sugar, and hershey coco along with salt and some milk....I cant think of what else you put in it. You put it over biscuts like reg gravy. Its very good, they call it gravy because you use the biscuts and because its thick like gravy. But it has not gravy in it.
