Pancakes

Whipped Cream

Method

Pancakes

  1. 1

    Prepare Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Add Chocolate Chips

    Fold in the chocolate chips gently into the batter.

  5. 5

    Heat the Pan

    In a non-stick skillet or griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.

  6. 6

    Cook Pancakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Keep Warm

    Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm in a low oven while you repeat with the remaining batter.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve warm with whipped cream on top.

Whipped Cream

  1. 9

    Chill Equipment

    For best results, chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes prior to whipping the cream.

  2. 10

    Whip Cream

    In the chilled bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.

  3. 11

    Beat until Stiff Peaks Form

    Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 12

    Serve

    Spoon the whipped cream over the warm chocolate chip pancakes and enjoy!
