I guess with a little history. Growing up I spent a lot of summers/free time/holidays in Robert Lee, Texas at my Nena & Grandad's house. Each and every time I we had Eddie's Chocolate for breakfast. I am still not 100% certain why it's called "Eddie's" chocolate, but I'm guessing that somewhere along the way he "invented" the delicious breakfast.You know when you wake up at your grandparents and you are CERTAIN that you'll get to do something way cooler than what your parents let you do?!? Well ours was Eddie's Chocolate.
The ingredients: Sugar, Hershey's Cocoa, Milk, Butter & Bread.
The recipe: Melt sugar, cocoa & milk. Top with butter & dip bread in.
This is when most people's gag reflex kicks in. Chocolate & bread for breakfast? Yup, that's right & it's delicious. To this day I still make Eddie's Chocolate if I'm having a late night sweet attack. It always hits my spot. And how could our cabinets not be stocked with these very basic ingredients?
I can't wait to cook Eddie's Chocolate for my kids. I just hope they like it as much as me and my cousins do.
&&& I love my husband because he won't admit it, but he loves it too. He always sneaks a bite (or 2 or 12) of mine when I make it.
