Although there will be a lot of chocolate in a few weeks time with Easter on the way I still can’t resist a chocolate pancake or two. I have made these before for my little family but last time I added the chocolate chips to the pancake batter.
The chips melted and the pancake mix was slightly too wet to cook into a pancakes. I have since learned my lesson and I now add them while the pancake is cooking on the first side. This is what I enjoy most about cooking, I’m learning as I go. Plus this made a really delicious breakfast too!!! Below is a video and recipe for you.

Double Chocolate Chip Pancakes were so tasty. These were fairly easy to prepare and cook. Although they were slightly time consuming. They are also freezable depending on what protein powder is used in the batter. Rice protein powder is not good frozen. You could make a big batch and freeze them for another occasion. They kept for a day in the fridge after they were cooked too. So they made a great leftover breakfast too. However you decide to eat these pancakes, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
