Serves 4

Ingredients:

For pancakes

• 1 cup Bisquick
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup chocolate milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg

For filling

• 1/2 cup plain vegetable shortening
• 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
• 3-1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 3 tablespoons hot water (from the tap)

For chocolate sauce

• 1/2 cup water
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

For pancakes

1. Preheat a flat griddle to 375 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients for the pancakes and stir until smooth.
3. Add batter to the griddle in 1/4 cup spoonfuls. Cook till bottom is cooked and top is bubbling. Flip and cook on the other side. Continue until all pancakes have been made.

For filling

1. In a bowl of an electric mixer add filling ingredients and beat for at least 2 minutes.

For chocolate sauce

1. Combine all ingredients except vanilla extract to a saucepan over medium heat.
2. Continually stir until the sauce starts to thicken.
3. Take off the heat and stir in vanilla extract.
4. As it cools it will become slightly thicker. Just remember this is chocolate sauce so it will not be as thick as fudge sauce.

For assembly

1. Spread filling on top of one pancake (make it as thin or as thick as you like) and top with another pancake.
2. Drizzle with chocolate sauce.
