What's better than a fluffy Belgian waffle?
How about a giant stack of chocolate pancakes?
Yes, I said chocolate. It's like eating cake for breakfast and it's about the best breakfast food ever. Try them. You'll like them!Chocolate Pancakes
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 2/3 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Combine sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and oil. In a separate bowl combine the rest of the ingredients. Add milk mixture to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto a medium heat griddle or nonstick skillet. Cook until bubbles form on top, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Then smother with maple syrup and eat like a pig!
(A substitute for buttermilk is to put 1.5 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar in a measuring cup then add milk to the 1.5 cup line. Let sit for a minute or two, and then you have buttermilk! It's basically a 1 tablespoon to 1 cup ratio, lemon juice to milk.)

Let's count the times I actually have buttermilk in my fridge.
Once a year.
Guess who just got lucky?
Soooo remind me of your job again? $57 an hour? Wouldn't that be nice... And yummo on the chocolate-o.
OH YUM!! Those look soooo yummy, and would you believe that I actually have buttermilk in my fridge!!
Those will have to be on the menu this weekend. We can make our own buttermilk by adding vinegar to regular milk, right?
I'm going to be a hit with the kids!
