Chock full of hearty oats and melty chocolate chips, you’ll feel like you are eating cookie dough for breakfast!
Hmm. The same can be said for my Cookie Dough Baked Oatmeal.
I guess I just really like chocolate for breakfast.
No, I didn’t really top my pancakes—the ones I actually ate—with chocolate syrup. But I’d cooked a batch the day before and put them in a plastic bag to stay fresh. Well, silly me didn’t know that if you cover a batch of pancakes, they get gooey-moist and go bad. No worries; I now had a whole batch of pancakes to use for a crazy photo shoot. So the pancakes didn’t go to waste. (I hate wasting food.) And the next day, I quickly made up a new batch to eat for real.

I have chocolate all throughout the day, usually in the form of unsweetened cocoa powder and semi-sweet choc chips, starting from breakfast and carrying on through dinner and any post-dinner snackerie. I think these pancakes look heaven-sent and I will be making them soon!
Is there anything wrong at all with chocolate for breakfast? I eat it in my oatmeal, in my banana sandwiches, in chocolate chip cookies and sometimes I even have real chocolate cake for breakfast. If it makes my day, it cannot be bad 🙂 .
