Ingredients

3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup Granulated sugar
3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
2 cups Milk
1 pinch Salt
2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder, sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt until evenly combined.

Step 2

Slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly to ensure there are no lumps, and the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring frequently, to prevent sticking or scorching at the bottom.

Step 4

Continue cooking until the gravy begins to thicken, about 7-8 minutes. It should coat the back of a spoon but still pour easily.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until fully melted and incorporated.

Step 6

Allow the chocolate gravy to cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve warm over freshly baked biscuits, pancakes, or waffles.
