Sour Cream Mini Chip Pancakes piled up on a plate.

This sour cream-chocolate chip pancake recipe from Lisa Yockelson’s ChocolateChocolate Cookbook produces phenomenally rich, sweet, and decadent pancakes. To be fair, they really should be considered dessert. But since pancakes are a breakfast food, we get a pass eating them for breakfast.

Thankfully it makes a large batch. Everyone will be back for seconds. I like to serve them with some nice and salty sausage patties or bacon.

A combination of sour cream and light cream makes for a super decadent and rich pancake batter. The sour cream gives the pancakes a little tang to cut the sweetness some.

This recipe takes more time and effort than making pancakes from a boxed mix, but the fresh taste is well worth it. These pancakes are phenomenal.

Ingredients

Steps

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolk, melted butter, sour cream, light cream, and vanilla extract.

  3. 3

    Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients and add chocolate chips. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir together just until combined. Batter should be fairly thick. Add additional cream 1 tablespoon at a time if batter is too thick.

  4. 4

    Heat a griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Wipe surface with butter and pour a scant 1/4 of batter onto griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on top and flip.

  5. 5

    Cook about 1 additional minute, or until set all the way through.

  6. 6

    To serve, dust with confectioners’ sugar and serve with maple syrup.
