School is closed, what is the first thing that pops in your mind? Comment below what you think.
The 1st thing I thought when I heard was “Yay! I can sleep in!” Also all the homework I had not yet finished, I can now do tomorrow (today), and chill tonight. But that never stops teachers from emailing you telling to “print this out, fill this in, read this, do #1,2,3,4,5,6,7 in your textbook..” Doesn’t that annoy you? Snow/cold days are supposed to be a day off from school and all!
Tommorrow when I wake up, who knows what time, I’ll beg my mom to help me make my favorite homemade pancakes! The recipe is below, if it’s coming from me, you know it’s good!
Charlottte’s Favorite Pancakes
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup milk 2 large eggs, separated 3 tablespoons butter, melted plus 4 tablespoons, divided 1/2 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate morsels
*Optional: Cinnamon Cream, recipe follows Maple syrup, for serving
Cinnamon Cream: 1 cup heavy whipping cream 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Directions Preheat griddle to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a small bowl, combine milk, egg yolks, and 3 tablespoons melted butter; add to flour mixture, whisking until smooth.
In a small bowl, beat egg whites at medium-high speed with an electric mixer until stiff. Gently fold into batter. Gently fold in chocolate morsels.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter on hot griddle. Ladle about 1/4-cup batter for each pancake onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until tops are covered with bubbles and edges look cooked. Turn and cook the other side. Repeat procedure with remaining 2 tablespoons butter and remaining batter.

Serve pancakes with Cinnamon Cream and maple syrup. Eat this deliciousness. It’s like a little peace of heaven!
