Chocolate Pancake


Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • butter for griddle, if needed
  • fresh strawberry and banana slices
  • Chocolate Sauce
  • 225 grams chocolate chips 
  • 1 cup heavy cream

How to cook:

  • Preheat the electric griddle to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix together granulated sugar and cocoa. Stir in light-brown sugar followed flour, baking soda and salt. Make a well in center of dry mixture and set aside. In a separate bowl mix together milk, buttermilk, eggs, vegetable oil and vanilla. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and whisk to blend. Butter griddle if necessary, pour batter onto preheated griddle 1/4 cup at a time and slightly spread batter in a circular form outward  and allow to cook until bubbles begin to appear on the surface, about 1 minute. Then carefully flip to pancake to opposite side and cook until done. Serve warm topped with chocolate sauce, strawberries and bananas.
  • For the chocolate sauce:
  • Place chocolate chips in a medium heat proof bowl. Bring heavy cream just to a gentle boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour hot cream over chocolate chips and stir until chocolate has melted. Note that chocolate sauce will thicken as it cools, also if you want a thinner consistency you can add a few more tablespoons hot cream. Reheat as needed in a bowl over a pan of simmering water.
