Method
Method of Chocolate Pancake
In a large bowl mix together yolks and sugar and whisk. While whisking add milk.
Carefully fold in whipped egg whites. It's better to use a spoon rather than a whisk so that you do not overwisk.
Add melted butter and vanilla extract and mix.
In another large bowl mix the sieved flour cocoa powder and the baking powder.
Form a little well in the middle and pour the milk and eggs mixture.
Stir gently until the batter is smooth.
Add in the chopped chocolate and mix well but gently. Let the batter sit for 15-20 minutes.
Over low to medium heat pour 1/4 cup (60 ml) of pancake batter on a well-oiled pan.
When bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake flip and cook it for a minute on the other side.
Method of Chocolate Ganache
To make the ganache take a small saucepan heat the heavy cream but do not boil it.
Take off the heat and mix in the chocolate chips until perfectly smooth.
When the pancakes are ready pour the chocolate ganache on top.
If the ganache has hardened while you were making the pancakes you can microwave it for 15-20 seconds.
