Preparation Steps
- Combine the cream cheese topping ingredients: cream cheese, yogurt, honey, and 1 tbsp fat-free milk. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve the red food coloring with 1 cup + 2 tbsp fat-free milk. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined and there are no more dry spots, being careful not to overmix.
- Heat a large non-stick griddle or frying pan over medium-low heat. Once hot, lightly spray with cooking spray to coat the surface.
- Pour 0.25 cup (1/4 cup) of pancake batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until bubbles form on the surface and edges begin to set, then flip and cook until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter. This recipe yields approximately 10 pancakes.
- To serve, place two pancakes on each plate and top with about 2.5 tbsp of the prepared cream cheese topping.
