With a hot fudge sauce? You know those mornings when you feel like you need coffee in everything? Because one cup of coffee just won’t do? Well, that was my morning!
The chocolate chips added into the mix just glorified them even more. How do they taste? Incredible. Exactly like CAKE! And I only speak the truth. So a coffee cake for breakfast to start the day, with melt in your mouth chocolate chips..topped with a creamy ‘frosting’ and dusted with chocolate dusting powder. Because it’s not cappuccino without dusting powder.
Chocolate dusting powder is a heavenly addition to ANY cappuccino creation! I kinda have a slight obsession with Cappuccino flavours, I think.
So, naturally I had to go ahead and create these beautiful coffee-flavoured fluffy pancakes. And what does the inside of this glorious stack look like?
So fluffy. So perfect. And melty chocolate chips.
