Today I'm doing an early post for the breakfasts of the week:
Amy (amylz)
(4 servings)
1 large egg
1 cup milk
2 Tablespoons melted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/2 cup chocolate chips
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the milk and melted butter. In a separate medium bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Add the egg mixture and the grated orange peel to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined and moistened. Heat a griddle or large frying pan to medium heat. Grease with a Tablespoon of butter per batch of pancakes or a generous coating of cooking spray. Dollop batter in 1/4 cup portions per pancake. Immediately sprinkle 6 to 10 chocolate chips over each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the top and the edges appear dry - just 1 to 2 minutes. Flip each pancake and cook the other side about one minute or until browned. Serve warm with your favorite topping.

PANCAKES:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 Tablespoon canola oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten
CINNAMON FILLING:
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
First, make the pancake batter. Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually whisk in the milk, oil, and egg until just combined. Make sure not to overmix-- Lumps are okay! Now make the cinnamon filling. Mix all the ingredients together and pour into a ziploc bag. You want this mixture to be very liquidy. Heat large skillet over medium-low heat. Scoop about 3/4 cup batter onto the skillet. Cut off the corner of your ziploc bag of filling and squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top of the pancake. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip over and cook until just browned (an additional 1-2 minutes).
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Crescents
Amy (amylz)
1 tube of crescent rolls
peanut butter
mini chocolate chips
chocolate syrup
Begin by unrolling crescent rolls and spreading peanut butter over each. Older kids can use a butter knife to do this. For younger kids, I would offer the backside of a spoon to spread the peanut butter. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips over top of peanut butter. Starting with the fat end of the crescent, roll up each triangle. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 11-13 minutes. Top with chocolate syrup and enjoy!

Double Chocolate Pancakes - These were a big hit. My brother kept saying they tasted just like a cookie. Of course the kids loved them too! I just used regular chocolate chips since that is what I had.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Crescents - I made these for the kids for breakfast and they went over pretty well. My 10 year old doesn't love crescent rolls so these weren't his favorite but my 6 year old thought these were excellent. I loved that they were so simple to throw together on a busy morning. The only change I made was to use regular chocolate chips since that's what I had.
Cinnamon Roll Pancakes - These turned out great. My husband made them and said they were very easy. He and the kids loved them too. I will make these again!
