Chocolate Bread

 

We are still trying to find ways

to use up all of the stale bread, so

today after Mass we came home

to a yummy breakfast of 

CHOCOLATE GRAVY

on bread

 

Hold on, don't leave you will like this,

I promise.

 

This is a recipe that

I remember from when

I was a little girl.  My cousins

and I would sneak to my Great Aunt's house.

She would make us chocolate bread.

We could never figure

out how our Moms knew we went

to Taunt Chook's house

and played on the barn and ate chocolate.

Hum- I wonder now,

could it have been a chocolate

ring around our mouths

and our bottoms had red paint on them???

 

CHOCOLATE GRAVY

 

5 Tbs. butter

3 Tbs. flour

3 Tbs. cocoa powder

4 Tbs. sugar

1 cup milk

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

 

Melt butter in a small sauce pan.

Stir in all dry ingredients and cook on

low heat for 2-3 minutes.

Slowly stir in milk, make sure

to get all of the lumps out.

Cook another 2 minutes, until thick.

Take off heat.

Add vanilla.

Serve over bread, buttered toast,

biscuits, ice cream.

You can even try it with eggs

and french fries.

 

 

Yes, we have tried

french fries dusted with chocolate

and eggs dipped in chocolate at

Chocolate by the Bald Man

In both New York and Las Vegas

 

(we did not have a picture of the eggs)

 

They are

 DE-LICIOUS!!
