Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup whipped cream
- 1/2 cup cream cheese frosting
- 1/4 cup strawberry jam
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- 1/4 cup maraschino cherries, drained
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or nonstick spray.
- Pour 1/3 cup batter per pancake onto the preheated surface. Sprinkle some rainbow sprinkles and mini chocolate chips over each pancake before flipping.
- Cook each pancake for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Stack pancakes on a serving plate, spreading a thin layer of cream cheese frosting or whipped cream between each layer.
- Drizzle strawberry jam over the stack, scatter with mini marshmallows, chopped nuts if desired, and extra sprinkles as you build up.
- Finish with a generous layer of whipped cream, maraschino cherries, more sprinkles, and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
- Serve immediately for best texture and presentation.
