Chocolate Chip Pancakes Recipe

These feather-light pancakes dotted with chocolate chips are one of my family's favorite breakfasts. For even more chocolate flavor, I sometimes stir 2 tablespoons baking cocoa into the batter.—Michelle Harbour, Lebanon, Tennessee

Whipped Butter for Pancakes

To make whipped butter like that served in some restaurants with pancakes, let your butter soften at room temperature, then beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Some restaurants mix in a little honey, confectioners’ sugar or orange peel for added flavor.
