Ingredients

4 ham stock cubes
2 ½ tablespoons instant coffee granules
2 cups water
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Dissolve ham stock and coffee granules in water in a large mixing bowl to create a stock.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; add flour. Cook butter and flour, stirring constantly, until brown, to create a roux, about 5 minutes.
Add stock mixture, ½ cup at a time to the roux, stirring constantly, until it has the consistency of gravy, 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir in black pepper. Remove from heat. Serve warm with meal of choice.
