Here is Paula Dean's recipe for Chocolate gravy:

Chocolate Gravy:
1/3 stick butter
2/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa
2 cups whole milk

Heat butter in a cast iron skillet over low heat. Mix in sugar, flour and cocoa. Slowly pour 1 cup of milk into the skillet and whisk well to remove lumps. Whisk in remaining milk, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick, being careful not to scorch. Serve hot over biscuits.


I swear this is the same recipe my grandmother used for chocolate cream pudding which was also the filling for a cream pie. (maybe there is a little more sugar in the pudding). I guess the difference is whether it is served hot or cold. Oh, and there's that referance to a cast iron skillet again. Those things are a must-have when it comes to cooking.
