Good morning everyone! How us everyone doing on this fine Saturday morning? I know we are all hungry for a killer breakfast/pancake recipe that will totally kill it right? I know I am lol. This week’s pancake of the week are Hot Chocolate Pancakes!! I know those just sound freaking awesome right? Well let me tell you something, being the dad of an 8 year old I know that kids love this one, then again what is totally chocolate the kids don’t love? Anyway thought the cool thing about this is it is a rich recipe, so much so that it can easily be served as a dessert rather than a breakfast and it wouldn’t be an issue at all! So whether you’re making breakfast for the wee ones (or treating yourself) making an ultra indulgent dessert for someone one or impressing the fam at a brunch this recipe totally has you covered!

• 1/3 Cup Sugar
• 1 tsp. Baking Powder
• Salt
• 1/8 tsp Cinnamon
• 1 Egg
• 1-1/4 Cup Buttermilk

FOR PANCAKES
