·       BAKING POWDER 1 TSP

·       BAKING SODA ½ TSP

Chocolates have always been a vital ingredient to all my desserts, since all these years passed the temptation for it has just kept on increasing. So, I always try to add chocolates in my recipe withholding the fact that I have become a massive chocolate addict now, well the stories will go on and let’s move onto the method of preparation of this quick and easy mouthwatering chocolate pancakes-

METHOD:

·       Firstly, take a clean bowl add the flour(purpose) as per the measurements, along with that add the sugar, cocoa powder, in that a teaspoon of  baking powder to it with half a teaspoon of baking soda/cooking soda followed with a pinch of salt in it, now the main reason of adding salt is to cut the sweetness and also to give richness to your desserts, so just like  sugar is a prominent ingredient to your desert so is the salt so do not skip this step.

·       Now mix all the dry ingredients in the bowl please make sure that no lumps remain. Here we are done with our first step and its time to add all the liquid ingredients to the dry mix.

·       For that, we will first add the melted butter now, in case you are out of stock with it well, it’s a rare case if you are planning to make a pancake for sure but if it is so then you can use any of the branded vegetable oil as a substitute of butter it will work out but then you will surely lose the richness of butter in your pancakes so try to use butter as possible.

Then after the chronicles of butter there comes the most important ingredient ‘milk’, yes! milk is actually a very important ingredient to your pancake mix well there is no lengthy reason behind it, it actually improvises the quality and richness of you pancakes.

·       Then after the lecture of milk and its goodness there comes the flavor part I always try to make my chocolate desserts extra chocolatey and in that chocolate essence play a vital role  but over here  as pancakes are meant to be a light and soothing snack I prefer adding vanilla essence so that we can balance the flavor. At last by adding o vinegar  the batter will get a tangy flavor and another main reason of adding vinegar is to activate the baking soda so ,it is very important to add the citrus  touch and also it should be added at last and not in between as it may react earlier and the pancakes would not puff up properly.

·       Now, slowly cut and fold the batter and do not mix or whisk it vigorously as it contains vinegar in it and it may lose the reaction due to heavy mixing.

Moving towards the final making of the pancakes, for this heat a nonstick pan, brush some butter or oil over the surface and then after few seconds pour the batter in small quantities and, while the entire procedure keep the flame on medium to low temperature.

Once, the bubbles start appearing on the surface of the pancake then just flip it carefully then cook it for a while then give it final flip to check the other side and your pancakes are now ready to serve!!

 Note: Vinegar can be substituted with 3-4 teaspoons of buttermilk, it is the best substitute also a very old school ingredient.

Happy Cooking😋
