Chocolate and Raspberry Pancakes!!!

My love affair with pancakes has existed since forever. It was an all-time favourite in our household, everyone lingering by the kitchen, with my mum ‘The Ultimate Pancake Machine’, flipping away the most magnificent pancakes in the world!!!

With Pancake day just around the corner, I couldn’t have asked for a better time for my long awaited pancake post!!

Ps: duhh alert - Todays Menu reads ‘Chocolate and Raspberry Pancakes’

Ingredients

  

I cup Self Raising Flour

1 Egg

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. Vanilla Essence

1 cup Milk

4tbsp Sugar

2 tsp. Cocoa

150 gms Raspberry

A pinch of salt

Method

In a large bowl   sift the Flour, baking powder, cocoa and salt; slowly fold in the egg using a spatula or whisk.

Now gradually add small quantities of milk to this batter, whisking continuously till a smooth batter is formed. Blend in the sugar and the vanilla essence. Add the raspberries as well.

Take a pan and get it really hot, and then turn it down to medium heat. Slightly grease the pan with a bit of butter, to prevent the pancake from sticking to the pan. Scoop the batter using a big spoon or a ladle and pour it onto the pan in one go. The pancake should ideally take half a minute or so to cook on each side till it turns mocha brown, so keep flipping it now and again so as to prevent it from burning.

To serve sprinkle some icing sugar and fresh raspberries, or you can maybe even go extra chocolaty with some decadent chocolate sauce!!!(YUMMMMMMM!!!)
