Gotta love a little sugar in the morning. Probably want to wait till the weekend to make these for the kiddies. It is actually not too bad, just regular pancakes with a little cocoa added. I have to say you shouldn’t omit the caramel glaze because I may be biased, but that is the best part. Thanks to Nesting Project for her picture and pancake recipe. I used my own caramel sauce recipe because it is super duper easy. I would love to have made these and posted my own pics, but it doesn’t really fit into the whole diet (avoid these 4 diet mistakes) thang. I would drink that caramel!
