Wickedly Welsh Chocolate Pancakes - our family recipe

Pancake Day just got a serious chocolate upgrade! These rich, chocolatey pancakes are perfect for anyone who believes more is more. Topped with a velvety Wickedly Welsh chocolate sauce, they’re a truly indulgent treat.
Gather Your Ingredients
To make the fluffiest chocolate pancakes, you’ll need cocoa powder, flour, eggs, and a few pantry staples. For the sauce, grab a bar of Wickedly Welsh Chocolate, double cream, and a touch of golden syrup. With just a handful of ingredients, you’re on your way to pancake perfection!
Mix Up the Batter
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. In a separate jug, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and lump-free.
Time to Flip
Heat a non-stick frying pan and lightly grease it with butter. Pour small ladlefuls of batter into the pan and cook until bubbles appear. Flip, cook the other side, and repeat until you’ve got a glorious stack of pancakes.
Make the Chocolate Sauce
Place the Wickedly Welsh Chocolate, cream, milk, and golden syrup into a heatproof bowl. Gently melt over a bain-marie, stirring until silky smooth. This rich sauce takes your pancakes from delicious to downright irresistible.
Stack and Drizzle
Pile your warm pancakes high on a plate. Pour over a generous helping of hot chocolate sauce. Let it ooze into every fluffy layer for the ultimate chocolatey experience.
Serve and Enjoy
These decadent pancakes are best enjoyed fresh, topped with whipped cream, berries, or extra chocolate shavings. Whether it’s Pancake Day or just a Tuesday, they’re the perfect excuse to treat yourself. Get flipping, drizzling, and devouring!
