Chocolatr Gravy for Biscuits

By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• Pinch of kosher salt
• 2 cups whole milk
• 4 tablespoons butter, cubed
• Good biscuits, for serving

Preparation

Step 1

Sift the cocoa, sugar, flour, and salt into a large skillet, preferably cast-iron. Add the milk in a slow, steady stream, whisking until smooth.
Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon, until the gravy thickens to the consistency of thin pudding, about 8 minutes. The gravy will thicken around the edge first, so keep it stirred up from the bottom and sides.
Remove the skillet from the heat and drop in the butter. Stir until melted and smooth.
Serve the warm gravy with the biscuits.

Note: The gravy thickens as it sits and cools. Thin it with a little more milk if needed when rewarmed
