Who am I?

I love to cook. I LOVE to bake! I work too much! Coffee should be supplied in IV form for me most days. I love television too much, and movies are my weakness if I ever had time to go, and a good book is always my favorite thing in the world.

Butterscotch Pancakes... WHAT?!?

So I have a weekend off. After working 9 days in a row, I get a day off!! Not just a day, a weekend!!! Then this morning I was staring at my bare cupboard, looking at it knowing I need to go to the store, but considering I am paying rent this week the store is going to be a very basic trip with nothing good.
I saw the butterscotch chips, and I saw the flour, the milk and the eggs.. and I yelled "PANCAKES!"
My daughter Rory said "YES!" So I decided basic pancakes from scratch is what I needed to make, and I'm going to throw in some Butterscotch just for the hell of it.

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, or vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 bag of butterscotch chips
In one bowl, I combined the milk, butter and egg.
 In another bowl mix together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder.
 Then slowly pour the flour mixture into the milk mixture.


 BUTTERSCOTCH CHIPS!!! Yeah.. I used the whole bag...
 And... pour. I didn't have the heat high enough at first...
 Then I had the heat too high...
 JUST RIGHT! So a medium heat for 1 minute on each side. PERFECT
 There were absolutely incredible... I Felt like I was eating candy for breakfast.. Oh wait.. I was.
 mmmm.. see the butterscotch.


SOOO that was breakfast this morning. It made A LOT of pancakes. I make all my pancakes in silver dollar size, and I got probably about 20. Which is a lot for me and the girls. So I am going to throw the rest into the freezer for a quick heat up breakfast for the girls on another day.
These pancakes were Aeryn approved.
