Strawberry Chocolate Chip Pancakes

I made these for Christmas morning (2012). For years I refused to make pancakes because they would always stick. Pancakes and I just didn't get along. Haha! But I tried it in a particular non-stick pan that I have and this time it worked. Yay! Oh, and these pancakes were so yummy!! Now I want to get a good quality, seasoned griddle to make them. :)

Notes from the Test Kitchen:
Lauren's easy to follow recipe for pancakes is perfect. The pancake alone is like a warm chocolate covered strawberry rolled into a pancake. These are easy to whip up but they seem very fancy. They'd be great for a special occasion like Mother's Day or Valentine's Day. In every bite, you get bits of strawberries and warm chocolate chips. These are yummy, rich and extra special.

Ingredients

2 c: Bisquick baking mix
2: eggs
1 c: milk
1 1/2 c: fresh strawberries, chopped small
1 c: chocolate chips, mini-sized
: pancake syrup
: whipped cream (I used Cool Whip brand)
: extra strawberries cut in half for garnish
: cooking spray

How to Make Strawberry Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Step-by-Step

1Rinse & clean the strawberries, cutting off the stems & any part that is not red & sweet.
2Chop the strawberries into small dices, leaving several to cut in half for garnish.
3In a large bowl, mix the Bisquick, milk & eggs until blended well.
4With a spoon, fold in the chopped strawberries and mini chocolate chips. If needed, mix in a little more milk to get the right consistency.
5Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop out the batter & pour onto a lightly sprayed non-stick skillet, or griddle over medium heat.
6When the top starts to bubble and the bottom is golden brown, flip the pancake and cook until both sides are golden.
7Hint: If your batter is just a little too thick, you may need to turn the heat down lower and let them cook a minute or two longer to avoid a gooey middle (learned from experience, lol).
8Top the pancakes with butter, syrup, whipped cream (or any combination of your choice) and garnish with 2-3 strawberry halves. Enjoy!
