Cook Time:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups self-raising flour
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 2/3 cup cocoa, sifted
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • ¼ cup melted butter

Method:

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa,
Gradually whisk in the eggs and the milk.
Mix until a thick, smooth batter forms.
Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and brush with melted butter.
Cook ¼ cup measures of this mixture in the pan. When bubbles form on the top, flip over to cook the other side.
Keep in a warm place while you cook the rest of the batter. This recipe makes 12 pancakes.
Serve with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce with fresh strawberries.

Notes

  • I like to use self-raising flour for pancakes because it makes them light and fluffy.
  • If you want your pancakes to be super fluffy, you can whip the egg whites (make sure you include the yolks in the batter) from the 2 eggs in the recipe until frothy and fold these into the batter before cooking.
  • You can use real chocolate melted in pancakes as well to replace the cocoa but this results in very heavy pancakes.
