Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup chocolate spread

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together the 1.5 cups flour, 0.25 cup sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, and 0.5 tsp salt.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, beat the 1 egg with 1 cup milk and 1 tbsp melted butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined; the batter should be lumpy, not overmixed.

  4. 4

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with the remaining 1 tbsp butter.

  5. 5

    Pour half the batter into the skillet, spreading it into a thick circle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden, about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.

  7. 7

    While still warm, spread 0.25 cup chocolate spread over one pancake, then top with the other pancake to make a sandwich.

  8. 8

    Drizzle with extra chocolate or caramel if desired, then slice into wedges and serve warm.
