STARDUST CHOCOLATE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine milk, egg and butter; whisk until blended.
• In another bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda and salt; mix well.
• Add milk mixture; whisk just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• (Batter will be slightly lumpy.) Heat griddle over medium heat until hot.
• (Drops of water will sizzle, then evaporate.) For each pancake, pour scant 1/4 cup batter into griddle.
• Cook 1-2 minutes or until batter is set around edges.
• Carefully turn over pancake; cook 1-2 minutes or until pancakes are cooked through.
• Repeat with remaining batter.
• Sprinkle pancakes with powdered sugar; serve warm with desired toppings.
• (I use a star shaped mold, placed on grill. You must spray mold with vegetable oil) Try using metal star shaped cookie cutters!

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Grease or spray bottom only of 13x9-inch pan. Make cake mix as directed on box--except add cinnamon to cake mix. Pour into pan.
• Bake as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• In 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat granulated sugar over medium-low heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly with wooden spoon and watching carefully, until sugar begins to melt. As sugar begins to melt, stir with wooden spoon until sugar is melted and golden brown. (Sugar becomes very hot and could melt a plastic spoon.) Remove from heat; carefully stir in butter and 1 tablespoon of the milk (mixture will become lumpy). Return to medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth. Cool 5 minutes.
• Add powdered sugar to caramel mixture; beat with electric mixer on low speed until well combined. Add 3 tablespoons milk, mixing until frosting is glossy and spreadable. If necessary, add up to 1 tablespoon more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time. Spread frosting over cake. Store loosely covered.

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE PANCAKES WITH DULCE DE LECHE

Steps:

• Serve pancakes topped with dulce de leche sauce and strawberries.

CHURRO PANCAKES WITH CHOCOLATE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: Whisk the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, salt and cloves together in a small saucepan. Whisk in the coffee, milk and vanilla and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, whisking until the sauce begins to bubble and thicken slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the sauce into a serving bowl and keep warm.
• For the pancakes: Whisk the flour, cornstarch, confectioners' sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon, the salt and baking soda together in a large bowl. Whisk the milk, butter, vanilla and eggs together in another bowl. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and whisk until ingredients are just incorporated and batter is thick (it¿s okay if there are some lumps). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon with the granulated sugar in a large shallow bowl and set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brush the skillet generously with butter then drizzle 1 heaping tablespoon of the batter into the pan, moving your hand back and forth to form a 3-inch long pancake stick; repeat to make enough pancakes to just fill the skillet. Cook, until pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, about 45 seconds. Flip the pancakes and cook until the batter is cooked through, about 30 seconds more.
• Transfer the pancakes to the cinnamon-sugar mixture and toss to coat. Shake off the excess and serve immediately while hot, with the Mexican chocolate sauce on the side for drizzling or dipping. Repeat with the remaining batter and cinnamon-sugar to make more pancakes, brushing the skillet with more butter in between batches.

• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat. Drop 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined and moistened. Do not over mix. Mix in chocolate chips or chunks. Set batter aside and make the chocolate sauce.
• Chocolate sauce: In a medium heatproof bowl, combine chocolate and heavy cream. Microwave in 20- to 30-second increments, mixing in between, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Set aside while making the pancakes. I like to pour it over the pancakes while it's warm.
• Cook the pancakes: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Coat with butter or oil. For each pancake, drop 1/4 cup of batter onto skillet. Cook 1-2 minutes, until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and the bottom appears to be done. Flip carefully and cook another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and if you want you can cover the plate loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Coat the skillet with butter or oil before every pancake or batch of pancakes to prevent sticking.
• Serve immediately with chocolate sauce (rewarm sauce in the microwave for a few seconds if needed).
