Sweetness from the chocolate coupled with the flowery flavor of a melted honeysuckle butter trailing over the top and down the side of each warm pancake gives us goosebumps and makes us want to get on a swing and go as high as we can!
Chocolate Chip Pan Biscuits with Honeysuckle Butter
makes 8-12
Ingredients:
2 cups cake flour
2 tablespoon baking powder
4 teaspoons sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups milk
2 eggs
½ teaspoon vanilla paste
3 tablespoons melted butter plus more for pan
¼ cup chopped dark chocolate
Honeysuckle Butter (recipe to follow)
Honeysuckle blossoms for garnish (optional)
Powdered sugar for garnish (optional)
Directions:
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla and melted butter. Stir in the flour mixture until just mixed in (batter will be lumpy). Fold in the chocolate.
Heat a large skillet or griddle and brush with melted butter. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan and cook like you’re making a pancake, but don’t flatten them down (BTW, never flatten a pancake either). These will be much more bread like inside. Remove to a plate and keep in a warm oven. Continue process until all the batter is used. Serve warm with Honeysuckle Butter melted over the top. Garnish with honeysuckle blossoms and powdered sugar if desired.
