Double Chocolate Brownie Pancakes

Also known as Birthday Cake for breakfast. Chocolate on chocolate makes for the best breakfast on earth. And brownies!

It was my birthday yesterday, and all I wanted was an excuse to eat super fluffy chocolate brownie cake for breakfast without a baking time, drizzled some more with extra chocolate sauce. I mean, who wouldn’t?

The best part of these is that they provide a ‘eat-while-you-cook’ (if you’re anything like me)’ type of situation before they have a chance to hit the plates.

And nothing beats the steam coming off of them as they come out of the pan. The chocolate smells that fill your kitchen can compete with any chocolate bakery. It’s Cocoa haven. Yes, that’s what I said: haven.

And to make them healthy — I served them with fresh berries.

Now…as with all chocolate batters..it doesn’t look — um — pleasant. Or dark enough.

But they do darken on arrival to your plates.

And then there’s that ganache-slash-sauce happening and drizzling all over the top…..

And all over the sides……

….creating a river of creamy chocolate and absorbing into the very centre of these brownie-cakes for breakfast, like something out of Willy Wonka’s Paradise.

Only, it’s right on your plate. A chocolate lovers dream….

    OMG! I just finished my dinner and had a dessert craving and googled “healthy mug cake” and found this as the top result so why not?… I mean, I’ve tried many recipes but this one is a total WINNER! It’s so tasteful, full of chocolate, melts in your mouth. It’s simply perfect in taste and texture. (I used 1 tbsp chocolate beverage powder instead of sugar and it worked perfectly!). Thank you so much, this is my new everyday favorite recipe!
