Chocolate Pancakes

September 28, 2011

Pancakes are one of the most popular breakfast items ever created. Some people can’t get enough of them at breakfast so they have them even at dinner! But much of the time, we have a tendency to have them as snacks.

Pancakes are so mouth-watering all their own it’s hard to imagine you can jazz up its delicious taste. However, variety adds spice to life so if you ever get bored with the same old pancakes you are used to, there is an array of choices to enhance them. Squeeze out your creative juices when making them and you are bound to have interesting and new pancake recipes, be it zucchini pancakes, carrot pancakes, and yes, chocolate pancakes!

Most people typically have pancakes with just butter and syrup, but there are varieties of syrup you can choose from. Chocolate syrup, for one, can make your pancakes lip-smacking good! You can drizzle chocolate syrup or you can sprinkle chocolate shavings. Better yet, incorporate the chocolate into the batter! Here is a recipe.

Chocolate Pancakes

• 2 cups flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup sugar
• 6 teaspoons cocoa powder
• 1 cup milk
• 4 teaspoons butter, melted
• 2 eggs
 
Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cocoa. Add milk, melted butter, and eggs. Stir just until mixed. It's OK if it's still a bit lumpy. Pour or ladle on a hot griddle to whatever size pancake you'd like. Flip when bubbly and edges appear dry.

Even William Shakespeare loved pancakes so much that he mentioned them in his plays! 🙂
