Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk (or a plant-based alternative)

1 large egg

2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips (milk or dark, your choice)

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

    Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined—do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

        Fold in Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold the chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring even distribution.

          Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

            Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until cooked through.

              Serve: Transfer pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with your choice of toppings like syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
