Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- Reese's syrup for drizzling
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup of cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 cup of sugar, 1 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, 1 large egg, 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and Reese's syrup for drizzling.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients together until they are well blended and there are no lumps.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and the large egg until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few small lumps.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with a small amount of vegetable oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Once the skillet is hot, ladle about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until they are cooked through and have a nice chocolatey color.
- Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm in a low oven (around 200°F or 90°C) while you cook the remaining batter.
- Once all the pancakes are cooked, stack them on plates and drizzle generously with Reese's syrup. You can also add extra chocolate chips or chopped Reese's cups on top if desired.
- Serve the pancakes warm and enjoy your delicious Reese's Syrup and Double Chocolate Pancakes!
Tips
- Measure Accurately: For the best texture, make sure to measure your ingredients accurately. Use a kitchen scale for precision, especially with flour and cocoa powder.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining wet and dry ingredients, mix until just combined. A few lumps are perfectly fine; overmixing can lead to tough pancakes.
- Perfect Heat: Ensure your skillet is preheated to medium heat. If it’s too hot, the pancakes will burn on the outside while remaining raw on the inside. Test the heat by sprinkling a few drops of water on the skillet; they should sizzle and evaporate quickly.
- Keep Them Warm: If you're making a large batch, keep the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven (around 200°F or 90°C) while you finish cooking the rest.
- Customize Your Toppings: Feel free to get creative with toppings! In addition to Reese's syrup, consider adding whipped cream, sliced bananas, or even a sprinkle of crushed nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the dry ingredients in advance and store them in an airtight container. Just add the wet ingredients when you're ready to cook!
- Experiment with Mix-Ins: Try adding other mix-ins like chopped nuts, peanut butter chips, or even a swirl of peanut butter in the batter for an extra layer of flavor.Enjoy your cooking adventure and savor every bite of these delightful pancakes!
