Chocolate is so loved by millions around the world and we can't seem to get enough of it. We have it in our beverages, biscuits, breads, cakes, pastries and even alcohol. Lately, I've become obsessed with experimenting flavors on pancakes and none has gone wrong so far. So, I thought to myself, 'why not do this for the chocolate culture'?. 'What's the worse that can happen?'. I've come up with a reality simple and easy recipe you can recreate. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
. 2cups flour
. 1 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder or 3 sachets of any beverage
. 1 cup raisins (soak in warm water for 30mins before prep)
. 1 cup peanuts
. 1 cup liquid milk or 2-3 sachets milk powder
. 1 cup of water
. 1/2 cup honey
. 2 large eggs or 3 small ones
. 1Tbs butter (Optional. I didn't use any)
. 1tsp baking powder
. 1Tbs chocolate essence/flavor
. 1Tbs browning if you want a really dark batter. ( I didn't use any)
. 1tsp salt
. Oil for frying
PROCEDURE
1) Melt butter and set aside
2) Separate egg whites from the yolks
3) Pour the egg whites in your mixing bowl and whisk until doubled in size and creamy.
4) Add in the yolks, melted butter, water and mix
5) Add flour bit by bit whisking thoroughly after each add to avoid lumps. Batter should be smooth, fluffy and lump free.
6) Add the cocoa powder, 3Tbs watet,baking powder and salt. Whisk to combine.
7) Add the milk, chocolate essence, browning, raisins, liquid from presoaked raisins, peanuts and honey. Mix till combined.
8) Taste and adjust sweetness and the batter is ready
9) Oil a pan and fry in 1/2cup batches for about 3-5mins on each side over medium heat.
10) To make the chocolate puree, mix cocoa powder, honey and 2tsp water. Mix and drizzle.
I had so much fun doing this and it's my favourite so far. looking forward to your questions.
