Mint Chocolate Chip Pancakes

This is a great recipe for all those who like mint chocolate chip pancakes. We usually make the regular pancakes as my kids are big time pancake lovers. I just tried these as my son likes the mint chocolate chip ice cream. There is nothing delightful as towering a stack of fluffy pancakes.

The green food coloring and adding the ground mint leaves are optional as you can add the mint essence. Making pancakes from scratch is easier and doesn't take much time. As toppings you can have whipped cream or chocolate sauce or cut berries or maple syrup.
