Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for skillet
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/4 cups Everyday Baking Mix, spooned and leveled
  • 1/3 cup store-bought chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 1/2 cup pistachio or vanilla ice cream

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together butter, egg, and 2/3 cup milk. Add baking mix; whisk just until moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).

  2. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Place a baking sheet in oven to warm. Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium; very lightly butter surface. Drop batter by 2 tablespoonfuls onto skillet; cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. With a thin spatula, flip pancakes, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more.

  3. Transfer pancakes to baking sheet in oven; cover loosely with aluminum foil. Continue to make pancakes with remaining batter, adding more butter to skillet as necessary (you should have a total of about 12 pancakes).

  4. In a small saucepan, combine chocolate hazelnut spread with remaining 1/3 cup milk. Bring to a simmer over medium-low; whisk until smooth. Serve pancakes topped with chocolate hazelnut sauce and ice cream.

Cook's Note

Transfer cooked pancakes to a baking sheet, and keep them in a warm oven until the chocolate hazelnut sauce is ready.

    Directions seem VERYclear to me. Step one says "add 2/3 cup of milk". Step 4 says "combine remaining 1/3 cup milk to chocolate hazelnut spread"

    What is confusing about that?

    Step 1 says too had 2/3 cup of milk to the mix. So the remaining 1/3 cup milk is to make the hazelnut sauce.

    Step 4 says "remaining 1/3 cup milk" Do we just use 2/3 cup in Step 1?

    I am confused by directions. Are we supposed to use 2/3 cup milk in pancakes or 1 cup? 2/3 cup seems like would make the pancakes very heavy.
