Chocolate Gravy
My mothre use to make this all the time. My grandmother called it spoon candy. I loved this desert and still do. I made this for my step children when they were young and I hope they make for their children some day.
this is great to have as a desert or for breakfast, one of those special breakfasts that parents have with their kids. no it’s not an every day food but my memories of eating this are special to me. I hope you make memories with your children.
you can serve this with Biscuts, Pound Cake, Puff Pastry, Cresent rolls…just about anything. I always liked it just by it’s self.
1 cup Sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
6 tbsp flour
2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 tbsp butter
you can also make vanilla by leaving out the cocoa powder.
in a medium saucepan, stir sugar, cocoa and flour. stir in just enough milk to form a smooth paste. then stir in remaining milk, vanilla and butter. place on medium heat and cook until it thickens. stirring constantly.
serve immediately, my mother use to serve it with a small pat of butter on top.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!!
