Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, mix 3/4 cup milk, 1 large egg, and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter until smooth.

  4. Step 4: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  5. Step 5: Pour 2 tbsp batter per mini pancake, cooking for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden.
  6. Step 6: For the snowman faces, mix 4 oz cream cheese with 2 tbsp powdered sugar until fluffy.
  7. Step 7: Stack 3 mini pancakes per serving, spreading a thin layer of cream cheese mixture between each layer.
  8. Step 8: Decorate each snowman using blueberries for eyes and buttons, strawberry slices for scarves, and mini chocolate chips for noses and smiles.
  9. Step 9: Serve immediately for a whimsical breakfast experience.
