For an even richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of melted white chocolate to the pancake batter. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes. Adjust the amount of red food coloring to achieve your desired shade of red velvet. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough pancakes. For a touch of elegance, garnish with fresh berries or a dusting of cocoa powder.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare the Cream Cheese Glaze (5 minutes): In a large bowl, beat together the sifted confectioners' sugar, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach a pourable consistency. Set aside.
02
StepCombine Dry Pancake Ingredients (3 minutes): In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
03
StepCombine Wet Pancake Ingredients (2 minutes): In another mixing bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Whisk in the buttermilk, milk, red food coloring, and vinegar, blending until evenly colored.
04
StepCombine Wet and Dry Ingredients (3 minutes): Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just moistened. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are perfectly fine. Gently fold in the melted butter until just incorporated.
05
StepCook the Pancakes (15-20 minutes): Heat a lightly greased griddle or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Drop batter onto the hot surface using a large spoon or measuring cup. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side.
06
StepServe (2 minutes): Stack the Red Velvet Pancakes and generously drizzle with the prepared Cream Cheese Glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy!
