Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red food coloring
  • 2 oz cream cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients—flour, cocoa powder, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients—buttermilk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, white vinegar, and red food coloring.
  3. Carefully pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grease it lightly.
  5. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  6. For the cream cheese glaze, mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
  7. Stack pancakes on plates, drizzle with glaze or syrup, and enjoy warm!

Notes

Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for best results. Use cooking spray or melted butter for greasing the pan.
