PANCAKE WEEKENDS!

I love the weekends.  As long as there is an hour in the morning J and I get up and make pancakes at least once a weekend.  Usually I use the cheater baking mix box stuff, but then I experiment with what ever I find in my pantry.

Had to start the morning with basic pancakes.  Need to know where I am starting from, right? 

Next was the closer to failure of pancake morning was the blueberry swirl pancakes.  Had some nice blueberry syrup that I though would make a good pancake.  Tasty? Yes.  Pretty? No. 

The winner of pancake morning?  Chocolate chip cookie pancakes!  Why have just chocolate chip pancakes when they can be chocolate chip cookie! 

These turned out great.  

Pretty simple to throw together.  

I tossed a handful of chocolate chips in my magic bullet and chopped them up a bit.  Last time I put chocolate chips in pancakes they sank to the bottle of the batter bowl. 

Put in a few large pinches of brown sugar. 

A dash of salt. 

And mixed together. 

Finally folded it into the pancake batter.  Remember to not over mix the batter, makes tougher pancakes.  

To top off a great pancake morning, some fresh squeezed orange juice by J.
