Yield 6 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 egg yolks
2 egg whites, whipped
3 tablespoons sugar
1 ⅓ cups milk, more if the batter is too thick
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups flour
¼ cup cocoa powder
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
3 ½ oz chocolate, finely chopped

8 oz chocolate chips
raspberry, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together yolks and sugar, while still whisking, add milk
  • Carefully fold in whipped egg whites.
  • NOTE: It's better to use a spoon rather than a whisk.
  • Add and mix the melted butter and the vanilla.
  • In another large bowl, mix the sieved flour, cocoa powder, and the baking powder.
  • Form a little well in the middle and pour the milk and eggs mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth.
  • Mix in the chopped chocolate. Let the batter sit for 15-20 minutes.
  • To make the ganache, in a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, without letting it boil.
  • Take off the heat, mix with the chocolate chips until perfectly smooth.
  • Over low to medium heat, pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of pancake batter on a well-oiled pan.
  • When bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake, flip and cook it for a minute on the other side.
  • When the pancakes are ready, pour the chocolate ganache on top.
  • NOTE: If the ganache has hardened while you were making the pancakes, you can microwave it for 15-20 seconds.

CHOCOLATE PANCAKES



Chocolate Pancakes image

Provided by Shiran

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/3 cups (185g) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (25g) cocoa powder (I use Dutch-processed)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil ((or 45g melted butter))
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (85g) chocolate chips or chunks
butter or oil (, for cooking)
140 g (5 oz.) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate
1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt (or whisk well with a whisk). Set aside.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together egg and sugar until well combined. Add milk, oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined and moistened. Do not over mix. Mix in chocolate chips or chunks. Set batter aside and make the chocolate sauce.
  • Chocolate sauce: In a medium heatproof bowl, combine chocolate and heavy cream. Microwave in 20- to 30-second increments, mixing in between, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Set aside while making the pancakes. I like to pour it over the pancakes while it's warm.
  • Cook the pancakes: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Coat with butter or oil. For each pancake, drop 1/4 cup of batter onto skillet. Cook 1-2 minutes, until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and the bottom appears to be done. Flip carefully and cook another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and if you want you can cover the plate loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Coat the skillet with butter or oil before every pancake or batch of pancakes to prevent sticking.
  • Serve immediately with chocolate sauce (rewarm sauce in the microwave for a few seconds if needed).

EASY CHOCOLATE PANCAKES



Easy Chocolate Pancakes image

Great for that early morning pick-me-up: pancakes with chocolate chips. Cocoa is thought to possess anti-depressant qualities, and also contains iron, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium - all vital in a healthy diet. The recipe also contains the optional ingredient of a tablespoon of orange liqueur or rum. Perhaps not for breakfast, but great if you're making these for dessert, when you may also want to use high quality dark chocolate instead of chocolate chips. This recipe has been adapted from one I found on an International Masters '1001 recipes for pan or wok' recipe card. In the preparation and cooking times below, I have not included the 1 hour standing time in step 2.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 8 pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

125 g plain flour
6 tablespoons soft light brown sugar
1 pinch salt
1 egg
1 egg yolk
250 ml milk
50 g butter
1 tablespoon orange liqueur (optional) or 1 tablespoon rum (optional)
60 g plain chocolate chips
icing sugar, to dust

Steps:

  • Sift the flour into a bowl, add the sugar and salt, make a well in the centre and add the egg and egg yolk; beat together until the flour is mixed in, gradually add the milk, then strain through a fine sieve.
  • Melt half the butter and stir it into the batter. Add the orange liqueur or rum (if using) and leave the batter to stand for 1 hour.
  • Melt a little of the remaining butter into a non-stick pan and spoon 1/8 of the batter into the pan, cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until almost cooked.
  • Sprinkle a few chocolate chips over the pancake. When the pancake starts to melt, fold the pancake into quarters, and transfer it to a warm serving plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining pancakes.
  • Dust the pancakes with icing sugar and serve with cream, yoghurt or icecream and your choice of berries or other fruit.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, or vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Assorted toppings, such as butter, maple syrup, confectioners' sugar, honey, jams, preserves, sweetened whipped cream, or chocolate syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet or heatproof platter ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, butter (or oil), and egg. Add dry ingredients to milk mixture; whisk until just moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).
  • Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
  • For each pancake, spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter onto skillet, using the back of the spoon to spread batter into a round (you should be able to fit 2 to 3 in a large skillet).
  • Cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 12 to 15 pancakes.) Serve warm, with desired toppings.
  • BUTTERMILK: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with low-fat buttermilk.

  • WHOLE-GRAIN WITH YOGURT: In step 1, replace the all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup each cornmeal and wheat germ, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.
