My favorite thing for breakfast in the winter is chocolate gravy over homemade biscuits, with bacon & coffee. I think there are some recipes for chocolate gravy around, but I've noticed most are a little different than the way I learned to make it so I thought I'd share it. This is one of the very few things that I know how to make without an actual recipe, so this is all very approximate.
Chocolate Gravy
Start with 14-16 table spoons of sugar. (On this & the cocoa I don't mean a measuring spoon, just a regular spoon used to eat)
Using a flat wooden spoon mix in a couple of heaping spoons of flour (probably about 3 measured tablespoons?).
Add a couple of table spoons of cocoa.
Stir that up & add about a cup & a half of water, heat slowly using a wire whisk to prevent lumps. If it seems too thick stir in a little more water.
Bring to a boil until it thickens. Pour over biscuits.
Hopefully that is clear enough for if anyone actually wants to make it.
