What is Deep South Chocolate Gravy?

It's not a southern brunch without chocolate gravy and buttermilk biscuits! This Appalachian chocolate gravy recipe is the epitome of comfort food. All you need is for this recipe is:

1/4 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup sugar
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups warm whole milk
2 Tbsp butter
Sift together the cocoa powder (we prefer Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder), sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt into a large skillet. Whisk the dry ingredients together and slowly pour in warm milk.

Turn the burner to medium heat and switch your whisk out for a heatproof spatula. Continue to stir and scrape the bottom and sides of the pan until thickened, about 8-10 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in the butter. Serve the chocolate sauce over hot biscuits, ice cream, waffles, muffins, or eat plain with a spoon.
