I was recently scanning through chocolate recipes (what else is new) when I glanced across something that said Biscuits with Chocolate Gravy. Wait… what?

I decided to make this for breakfast the next day which was easy since I had all the ingredients on hand.

Chocolate gravy has mainly been cooked in the South, and after researching the scrumptious meal I realized many people have strong feelings about it. For many people, chocolate gravy makes them think about their Grandmother, their father, Sunday mornings. For me, I think about the best breakfast ever.
I have a confession. I used canned biscuits!
Oh the shame… I didn’t want to tell you, but there was no way around it. Don’t judge me.
But you know what, you can’t deny it and say Pillsbury biscuits, baked until golden perfection, are bad. You would be lying if you did! I do make homemade biscuits, just didn’t feel like it that morning. I opened the can of biscuits (actually I made Kyle do it, I hate how the package bursts open, it scares me) and I made the gravy in less than 15 minutes. Set the coffee on brew, and breakfast is served!
