Cappuccino Pancakes with Mocha Frosting

Easy Breakfast

Whoa.  Thats a long name for just a pancake recipe.  Trust me.. its not just a pancake.  Its the pancake.  The one you dream about in your sleep and wake up and have to make it.  Its that one.  I originally share this amazing recipe over at Little Inspiration and thought yall would like love  it as much as I do.  Its one of our absolute favorite easy homemade recipes!

Cappuccino Pancakes with Mocha Cream Cheese Frosting

slightly adapted from here
 
Pancakes:
4 cups flour
2 tbs baking powder
2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
+ instant coffee granular, vanilla and cinnamon to taste
 
Frosting:
4 oz cream cheese
1 tbs sugar
1/2 tsp instant coffee granules
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
 
 
 
Take your normal pancake ingredients and blend them all together.  Or if your a Bisquick type of pancake maker then use that and mix it all up.  I do Bisquick half the time and homemade pancakes the other half.  Depends on how the morning starts off.
 
 
Next, mix in your extras to make them cappucino-esque.  [Is that a word?  It should be.]  Instant coffee, cinnamon and vanilla.
 
 
Add your chocolate chips and mix it all up.  [This is my favorite part.. I heart chocolate.  We have a very close relationship.]  Yes, you can eat a few chips too.  [That’s one of the best parts!]
 
 
While your pancakes are cooking combine all your ingredients for the frosting in a mixer.  [Cream cheese, sugar, coffee granules, vanilla extract, and more chocolate chips.]  Blend until smooth.
 
 
These are perfect for a lazy Saturday morning [or any morning if you ask me] with a cup of coffee.  Just be careful, you may be a major caffeine buzz.  And although they are delicious I wouldn’t advise feeding them to toddlers.  Not that I know of the after effects, just a word of warning.

    Hi Kelley! O.M.G. – these looks like a great way to kick off a weekend breakfast. But I will heed the warning to not feed to the Littles … kinda like not feeding the bears. 😉 Found you through Krystal’s Kitsch National Coffee Day round-up.
