Saturday morning pancakes!

The roommie and I woke up this morning and decided it was a pancake morning.  We didn't have a whole lot of ingredients in the house but I found a recipe that utilized exactly what we had (including only 1 egg, which is exactly what was left in the fridge after last week's quiche).

We added some chocolate chips and when we ran out of chocolate chips we added sprinkles (a la How Sweet's Cake Batter pancakes).  Turns out the pan didn't have to be sprayed with Pam because of the butter in the batter.

My roomie taught me her Dad's trick - you know they're ready to flip when the bubbles don't close.

DELISH!
