Ingredients

For the pancakes

For the chocolate sauce

  • 55g/2oz caster sugar

Method

  1. To make the pancakes, whisk the flour, egg and milk in a bowl to make a batter.

  2. Heat the oil in a pancake pan and, once hot, ladle the mixture in. Allow the mixture to coat the pan and fry the pancake for 1–2 minutes on each side or until golden. Repeat with the rest of the batter.

  3. For the sauce, whisk the sugar, water and cocoa together in a small pan over a gentle heat. Add extra water depending on how thick you require the sauce.

  4. To serve, transfer the pancakes to a serving plate and drizzle the chocolate sauce over.
