Buttermilk Chocolate Biscuits

For Biscuits:

1.) Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

2.) Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.

3.) Cut cold butter into chunks and then cut into the flour until it resembles a course meal.

4.) Add buttermilk until it is JUST combined (don’t overmix).

5.) If it appears too dry, then add a tad more buttermilk.

6.) Turn dough onto a floured surface.

7.) Very gently pat (do not roll) until desired thickness (I like 1/2-1 inch thick biscuits).

8.) Using a round cutter, cut into biscuits.

9.) Place on a cookie sheet, brush with melted butter if desired.

10.) Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden brown on top.

For Chocolate Gravy:

1.) Place all ingredients in a saucepan.
2.) Cook on medium-low heat until butter is melted.
3.) Simmer for just a little bit longer.
4.) Pour over warm biscuits and go to Heaven.
