Sauces and Condiments Recipe ‹ Art's Southern-Style Chocolate Gravy

Art Stone from Honest Biscuit in Seattle was inspired by his grandmother's version of this down-home, easy-to-make breakfast staple that's served over fluffy buttermilk biscuits. Sounds kind of funny if you've never tried it before, but one bite and you'll be hooked.

Ingredients

• 2 ⅓ tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• ⅓ cup white sugar

1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes. Add flour and stir until smooth, about 1 minute.
