Dark Chocolate-Coconut & Raspberry Pancakes
Ok, self admitingly this is more of a dessert recipe than for breakfast but who am I kidding- it can be made any time of the day or night.
Most pancake recipes you may find have you making the batter from scratch. No need, any complete box mix ( one with someones aunt on the front cover ) will do just fine. Its the quality ingredients you add to it that make this recipe. You can also keep that maple syrup in the cabinet or refrigerator. You wont need it. We are going to serve these pancakes with a warm raspberry preserve sauce.
So with that said, enjoy and Happy Sunday!
