Hot Chocolate Pancakes

I don’t know about you guys, but hot chocolate is kind of a staple in my house during the Holidays. I’ve seen some recipes like hot chocolate cookies, brownies cake, etc. before and one day I woke up craving hot chocolate and pancakes so I thought, hey why not!

This recipe is super easy; it only has 5 ingredients! After going gluten-free I was kind of irritated at the lack of easy-pancake options out there that were equally as delicious; until Betty Crocker’s Gluten-free Bisquick mix came out. I do alter their directions slightly. I find adding in some extra sugar and baking powder makes them perfectly fluffy and delicious.

Ingredients

1 Box of Betty Crocker's Gluten-free Bisquick mix
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tsp baking powder
1/2 Cup of hot chocolate
Mini marshmallows

Instructions

Follow the directions for Pancakes as per on the box.
Add 2 tbsp of sugar and 1 tsp of baking powder.
Toss in some marshmallows.
To make swirled pancakes, like I did, separate the batter into two bowls; add 1/2 cup of hot chocolate powder into one.I poured one batter first making a small pancake and then quickly poured the second batter on top in the centre. I then gently dragged a spoon through to create the swirls.
Fry them up, and garnish with some more marshmallows and maple syrup!

Notes

If you don't want them to be swirled, just use more hot chocolate powder.

Enjoy! For extra melty goodness, after I garnished the pancakes I tossed them in the oven for a few minutes to help melt and toast up the marshmallows that were on top. Not sure how healthy this breakfast is, but yolo.
