Yummy! I like mine lumpy too and that's just how I made it. The chocolate was great and the butter was a nice touch. Loved this tasty breakfast treat - thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for the Comfort Cafe event, January 2009

I'm with your son! I intentionally make lumps in my Cream of Wheat when I cook it - dunno why but they're satisfying somehow! This looks like a great recipe and I'll definitely try it on my little tykes... thanks!
