Heart-Shaped Pancakes with Chocolate

Breakfast 35 Mins.

Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 large egg, separated
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 0.75 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons buttermilk, or more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 1 (4 ounce) bar milk chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or to taste

Instructions

  • Whisk melted butter and egg yolk together in a small bowl.
  • Sift flour and baking powder into a large bowl; stir in sugar. Whisk in egg-butter mixture and 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk until a smooth, thick batter forms. Add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if batter is too thick.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon butter in a nonstick skillet over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and use a ladle to spoon 1/8 of the batter onto the hot skillet; fit as many pancakes on the skillet as possible without overcrowding. Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a warm plate. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • Use a large, heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut a heart in the center of each pancake. Discard scraps.
  • Place a few chocolate pieces on top of a warm pancake and sandwich another pancake on top. Repeat with remaining pancakes and chocolate.
  • Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve.
