Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pancakes

Step 1

Begin by making the Chocolate Covered Strawberries: Make sure your strawberries are very dry, so that the chocolate will adhere to your strawberries. Place the chopped chocolate in a bowl and microwave the chocolate, stirring it every ten seconds. Do this until the chocolate is all melted. Dip each strawberry in the chocolate and then place it on a wax paper lined plate. Refrigerate the berries while you make the pancakes.

Step 2

Begin the pancakes by sifting together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

In a second bowl, beat together the egg, milk, and yogurt/sour cream. Then, stir this mixture into the flour mixture. Mix just until no flour streaks remain. Stir in the melted butter, and then the chocolate chips.

Step 4

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle, and melt a teaspoon of butter. Depending on what size you want your pancakes, ladle the correct amount of batter onto the skillet. When bubbles appear, flip your pancakes. Add more butter, as necessary.

Step 5

While the pancakes cook, melt the milk chocolate in a bowl in the microwave. Stir every ten seconds, until the chocolate is all melted.

Step 6

Top the pancakes with the chopped strawberries and then drizzle them with the melted chocolate. Add some whipped cream and chocolate covered strawberries to each plate.
