    Growing up, we called this soppin chocolate. We would have this with what we call side meat. My grandma made is all the time. Especially on Sunday nights..........loved that I found a very close match to it. Wouldn't you know that it would be from another southern gal, Paula Dean!!!

    Let me tell you...I grew up eating Chocolate Gravy too! My grandmother used to make it for me everytime I would visit. My aunts would make it and my mother as well. I always thought it was just our family recipe because everytime I ever told anyone about it or asked if they tried it, they would say "what, chocolate gravy, eww." They just don't understand what they were missing! A GREAT THING TO ADD TO THIS WHILE EATING....BRACE YOURSELVES....A SPOON FULL OF PEANUT BUTTER and A TOUCH OF BUTTER. So Creamy and good! That's for all you who love the mixture of chocolate and peanut butter that is...and believe me it will put your tummy in a good mood. Makes you full real quick! I introduced my kids to Chocolate Gravy and maybe one day they will pass down the tradition. GREAT TO KNOW OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCES AS I GROWING UP ON CHOCOLATE GRAVY!!

    Best regards,

    Keasha Garrett

    P.S. Don't forget the PEANUT BUTTER!!

    I love Chocolate gravy with biscuits, I grew up eating it for breakfast here in Northern Alabama it is a staple, your recipe is what we all use, some use milk and others water. Thanks for sharing it with the world. Just break them biscuits up in your plate, pour the gravy over and add some butter, yum.

    I wonder if this is just a Southern Dish? I am also from Arkansas and we grew up eating this for breakfast. I like mine slightly thick and toss a few pats of butter on my plate to boot. None of my friends have ever heard of this and when I made it they were suprised. Its just nothing more than "Southern Love"!

    I remember having this dish as a boy in Nashville, Tennessee. It was just as I remembered it to be and will be eaten at the house again. I can't think of many dishes that come out of Tennessee that were bad. Tennessee takes pride in it's food dishes. Thank you Paula for bring this dish back to us. The secret to this dish is a combination of the buttermilk biscuit homemade in the traditional maner and the scratch made chocolate sauce, pudding mix just doesn't match up to it. Great Job!!

    I LOVE this recipe....REALLY. It was so easy to do, and the pecan praline topping was incredible. I had overnight company and made it up the night before. What a hit! And the smell as it was baking in the oven that morning, OH YEAH!!! Try it!!! Right now, I mean it! :O

    A more easier way is to buy a box of Jello chocolate cooking pudding & pie filling and pour it over your hot bisquits.
