Ingredients
Let’s Make Chocolate Strawberry Pancake Tacos
- Dice the strawberries and set them aside.
- Whisk the five dry ingredients – flour, cocoa powder, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, mix egg, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
- Pour the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk for 2-3 minutes.
- Set the mixture aside to rest for 15 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet on medium-low heat.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the batter into the skillet. I get three pancakes in my skillet.
- Drop several mini chocolate chips on top of each pancake.
- As the pancakes cook, small bubbles will begin to form on top. The bubbles will then begin to pop and create small holes. When the bubbles start popping it’s time to flip the pancakes.
- Once you flip them, cook for another 2 minutes.
Assembling The Tacos

- Place the pancakes in two rows on a cookie sheet or cutting board.
- Spread a tablespoon of sour cream on each pancake.

- Serve on a large platter with the remaining strawberries.
- Dust with powdered sugar for garnish.
