Chocolate Milk Pancakes with Chocolate Chips
This post may contain referral links for products I recommend. Please read my disclosure policy.
When I veered away from my usual Buttermilk Pancakes and experimented with these Cinnamon Sour Cream Pancakes, I thought it was just a short recess from my habits. It turns out I am on a full-fledged pancake kick. Recently, I declared that I would work my way through every single pancake recipe found in my cookbooks. I tend to make such lofty claims and then get lured into a new obsession before completing the mission.
This recipe comes from the same cookbook as my previous post, Pantry Blondies. The cookbook, Mom’s Big Book of Baking, was given to me by a co-worker at one of my first jobs. I love what the author, Lauren Chattman says about her Chocolate Milk Pancakes:
If you’re a bad mother (like me), you’ll make these any time your kids ask for them, and fight with them for the last one. If you have strict rules about healthy breakfasts, save these for birthdays and other special occasions. (The recipe can be doubled for the morning after a slumber party. God help you if you have more than eight kids to feed.)
Breakfast shmeakfast… we ate these for dinner the other night! It turned out to be a good move because you aren’t exactly light in your loafers after packing away a few of these buggers. It was the perfect meal before my rare and decadent coach potato evening.
If you have a favorite pancake recipe, please give me your link. Feed my frenzy.
Chocolate Milk Pancakes
Makes 4 servings, about twelve 4-inch pancakes.
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups chocolate milk
1 large egg
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Stir together flour baking powder, salt and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Measure the chocolate milk into a large glass measuring cup. Crack the egg into the cup and beat lightly with a fork to break up the egg. Stir in the cooled melted butter. Pour liquid into the mixing bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are mostened. Don’t worry about lumps.
Spray griddle with cooking spray or use a little oil or butter. Heat over medium high heat. For each pancake, spoon about 1/4 cup batter onto the surface. Sprinkle chocolate chips over each pancake. When it begins to bubble, flip and cook until golden on each side. Serve immediately or keep warm in a 200 degree oven.
These don’t really need a topping but you could use powdered sugar, syrup or even peanut butter! OR, how about mini pancakes with a dollop of whipped cream and drizzle of chocolate sauce for a dessert course after dinner.
oh man, chocolate pancakes? i’m kind of scared, but i’ll take the plunge!
I love pancakes and I love pancakes for dinner (heck, I even had a pancakes for dinner recipe in my book Pantry Raid). I also love chocolate but just not in pancakes. I guess I’m a purist!
Out. Of. Control.
It has never occurred to me to use chocolate milk in the batter, great idea!
Oh boy…my son would go NUTS for these! He’s on a chocolate milk kick lately and of course, loves chocolate chips, so these would just be heaven for him. Not to mention for me too, my pregnancy cravings for anything sweet are completely out of control in this last month!
what would count chocula think…

Hi there, You’ve done a fantastic job. I will certainly digg it and personally recommend to my
friends. I am confident they will be benefited from this site.
I’m positive all of you right here perform Staff Fortress two,
or else you wouldn’t be here! I also engage in TF2, and a single factor that
I couldn’t get my head all around was collecting all the products!!
I’v noticed some players cant even accumulate most of the
things, never ever mind ALL of them!! I was committed to receiving all the products, but
it seemed unattainable, so currently being an experienced programmer, I obtained
to operate!
Soon after several hours of difficult perform
I designed, what I say 1 of the best hacks out there! (biased much?!) The device that I have designed makes
it possible for you to unlock any of the objects you would
like in TF2!
I’ts straightforward genuinely…
I was arranging to sell this device and allow some income start rolling
in, but i know the feeling of not currently being in a position to pay for it, or becoming a ‘poor’ dude
on TF2, so I have decided to give this out for
totally free to see what folks believe of it! Just go through the tutorial under detailing how to
obtain and use the tool!
