Not exactly an original recipe, since I use a mix for my pancakes, but I thought these just looked pretty. My favorite mix is Krusteaz Buttermilk, which I buy in a MONGO bag at Costco. I like this mix because it turns out well and is tasty, even though all you have to add to it is water (I always add a bit more than it calls for). I usually add a sprinkle of cinnamon and a dash of McCormick’s Vanilla Butter and Nut extract, to add a yummy flavor.

I don’t remember where I found the candy-coated mini chocolate chips that I used in this batch of pancakes (maybe here?), but I can’t find them anymore. If anyone knows of another source for them, please let me know. I don’t mix them into the pancake batter (I discovered that the candy coating runs and makes an unappetizing rainbow streak in the batter), but sprinkle them onto each pancake right after it’s poured on the griddle. To make the cute mini-sized pancakes, I pour the batter onto the griddle from a measuring tablespoon. For REALLY small ones, use a measuring teaspoon. Be prepared to turn those FAST.

Pancake tip, for those that haven’t made them frequently: your pancakes are ready to turn when the tops are covered in air bubbles.
