Ingredients
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup dark unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups whole milk or buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 cinnamon biscuits (recipe link below)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, measure the sugar, cocoa powder, flour, cinnamon and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Add the milk and melted butter to the cocoa mixture and whisk until smooth. Then pour the mixture into a small sauce pot.
- Set the sauce pot over medium heat. Simmer the gravy to thicken, whisking periodically, for at least 5 minutes, but up to 10 minutes. This ensures the flour cooks through and does not taste raw. If the gravy gets too thick, add a splash of milk to thin it out a little.
- When ready to serve, whisk in vanilla extract. While it's still hot, spoon the gravy over warm cinnamon biscuits and serve.
