In which we make pick-me-up pikelets...


chocolate pikelets
So we were all feeling a bit 'meh' yesterday.  The Mr. had been away working for a few days and it was freezing cold and foggy.  I thought we were all in need of a pick-me-up.  So I suggested pikelets for breakfast.  Minty suggested we go one better and make chocolate pikelets.  I've never really had a chocolate pikelet or pancake for that matter but it sounded pretty awesome so we did a bit of experimenting and this is what we came up with.


chocolate pikelet pancake recipe

These would taste amazing with vanilla ice-cream or you can follow our lead and have them dusted with icing sugar and a generous mound of berries.  Or just eat them plain straight from the pan in their unadulterated fabulousness.

  3. I always have that problem with pikelets - as soon as one is cooked I'm eating it while cooking the next batch and so not nearly as many hit the plate as they should! Far too tasty hot and unadulterated...
