Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon red food coloring
• 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk (or more for desired consistency)
• Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, buttermilk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and red food coloring together until well mixed.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes until golden brown.
5. For the cream cheese drizzle, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a bowl. Add milk gradually until you reach your desired consistency.
6. Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with cream cheese icing and enjoy!
