Enjoy these delightful Galaxy Chocolate Pancakes, a fun and delicious twist on classic pancakes, perfect for a special breakfast or brunch.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
Ensure the butter is slightly cooled before mixing to prevent cooking the egg.
In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.
Sift the cocoa powder to avoid lumps in the batter.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
Heat a griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it. Place a star-shaped mold on the griddle and pour batter into the mold.
Spray the mold with non-stick spray to ensure easy release.
Cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then remove the mold and flip the pancake. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until done.
Use a thin spatula to flip the pancakes gently.
Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve the pancakes warm, topped with powdered sugar and fresh strawberries.
Arrange the strawberries decoratively for an appealing presentation.
