Pancake Batter

  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate Ganache

  • 1 cup chocolate chips any sweetness - I mixed milk and dark
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Put a 12 cup muffin tin (cast iron reccommended but not needed) in the oven and preheat to 425°.
  • Put all of the batter ingredients in a blender and combine.
  • Once muffin tin is heated, put a small amount of extra butter in each individual tin and let melt completely.
  • Re-blend batter and pour evenly into the hot muffin cups, about halfway for each.
  • Put in oven for 15-17 minutes, until large and puffy.
  • While the Dutch babies are in the oven, start a double boiler and melt the chocolate chips.
  • Stir in heavy cream to melted chocolate and set aside.
  • Once the pancakes are done, take them out of the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes. They will deflate.
  • Drizzle ganache over the pancakes while warm and dust with powdered sugar. Add any fruit or extra toppings as desired. Enjoy!!
