Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk them together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

  4. 4

    Fold in Chocolate Chips

    Gently fold the chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring even distribution.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

  2. 6

    Cook the Mini Cakes

    Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each mini pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 7

    Flip and Finish Cooking

    Carefully flip the mini pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet and serve warm. You can stack the mini pancakes or serve them as individual cakes.
