Chocolate Milk is the second and final studio album by American Soul/R&B vocal duo Charles & Eddie. The title refers to the duo's mixed race; Charles Pettigrew who is black (chocolate) and Eddie Chacon who is white (milk).[citation needed]

The album produced two Top 40 hit singles: "I'm Gonna Love You (24-7-365)" (New Zealand, Switzerland and UK) and "Jealousy" (Austria).

The song "Little Piece of Heaven" was covered by The Neville Brothers on their 1999 LP, Valence Street.[3]
