Week 13: Good Gravy

I think I would serve gravy at a coffee shop for breakfast. Peppered milk gravy with sausage over biscuits is a real treat. I have another interesting gravy that as a child I remember my grandma making. It is also served with biscuits. Chocolate gravy was something I only ever had at my grandma's house and we grand kids were so excited when we would spend the night and wake up the next morning with a plate full of homemade biscuits and a bowl of chocolate gravy. Both are similar in the making. Chocolate gravy has 1 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 1/2 cups milk, 2 tablespoons flour, and 3 tablespoons Hershey's cocoa. Mix all the dry ingredients in a heavy saucepan with a whisk. Stir in the milk. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly. Remove pot when mixture is thick like pudding. Add the butter. Stir in until completely melted. Serve over hot biscuits with a dollop of butter. I'll share the peppered gravy at the end when I complete them all and put them in my cookbook. Hope you enjoy! Yum Yum!!!
