We love pancakes at our house, but when special occasions come, we pull out all the stops. Birthdays and sleepovers are some of our favorites.

My buttermilk chocolate chip pancakes are fluffy, sweet pancakes with the tang of buttermilk seeping through, giving them the perfect morning dream come true.

What I love about making pancakes is there are no crazy ingredients to come up with.  I mostly just need to make sure my buttermilk is fresh.  I use full fat buttermilk in my pancake recipe, yielding the most tender pancakes.

TIPS AND TIDBITS TO MAKE THE MOST DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES


Use full fat buttermilk.  The full fat buttermilk keeps the batter thick and luscious, making the pancakes tender.

Use mini chips.  Chocolate chips have a high resistance to heat, so the mini chocolate chips are less likely to burn.  Rather than mixing them in the batter, sprinkle a few on the pancake just before flipping it.  Add a few more when serving the pancakes.

Room temperature.  Start with buttermilk and eggs at room temperature.  They are easier to incorporate and will yield a fluffier batter. 

Don't over mix.  The batter should be slightly lumpy.  Too much mixing will yield flat pancakes.

Let the batter rest.  Letting the batter rest for a few minutes will let the leavening ingredients activate and do their magic.

Test the pancakes.  Add a teaspoon of oil to the pan or spray with cooking spray. You can test to see if the pan is hot enough by adding a few drops of water. If or when the drops start to dance, it is hot enough.

Runny batter.  If the batter spreads too much, add a tablespoon of flour at a time between stirring to reach the right consistency.

Thick batter.  If the batter is too thick and will not spread at all, add a little whole milk or water.

Flat pancakes.  The baking powder may be old. Add 1/2 teaspoon more baking powder.

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES


In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add buttermilk, butter, and vanilla and mix well.

Add flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Mix well until a smooth consistency yet a little lumpy.

Heat griddle or pan over medium heat.

Add a teaspoon of oil to the pan or spray with cooking spray. You can test to see if the pan is hot enough by adding a few drops of water.

If or when the drops start to dance, it is hot enough.

Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle, depending on how big you want the pancakes.

Cook on the first side until bubbles come to the surface and start to pop. Sprinkle a few of the mini chocolate chips on the pancake just before flipping.

Flip the pancake over with a spatula and cook until golden brown.

Repeat until all the batter is gone.

Place cooked pancakes in a 200 degree F. oven until ready to serve.
