Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes Recipe

Description

Indulge in these decadent Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes, where rich cocoa meets melty chocolate chips. Perfect for a special breakfast or brunch, these fluffy pancakes are a chocolate lover’s dream come true.

Ingredients

Scale

1½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1¼ cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Mix Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Heat Griddle: Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
Cook Pancakes: Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until cooked through.
Serve: Transfer pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Additional Notes:

For extra richness, serve with whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
To make the pancakes lighter, you can substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
If you prefer, use mini chocolate chips to ensure even distribution throughout the pancakes.
