If not too much unfermentable malt then what? Mash temp could be lower but 156° isn't out of range. Two packs of US 05 PLUS nutrients should have sent the airlock into the ceiling! I suppose it's time for some sugar.

It could be that the real temperature was a bit higher? If calibrated, then I would guess that it must have been the yeast giving out.
Holy cow...2 lb. aromatic? 1.25 lb. chocolate?
