I made these for all my kids and cousins when they were visiting for Christmas and they were a huge hit. They are not too sweet. Just the right amount of chocolate.

Wow, these should be called “Fudgy Brownie Pancakes.” I served with real maple syrup and real whipped cream–what an indulgent treat for breakfast. When cooking I was concerned that they were thick and not fluffy. But the taste was so good. They are very rich; I couldn’t eat as many as I do with regular pancakes. My toddler loved them too. The only change I made to the recipe was to use ground flax instead of seeds. Actually, I just looked up Chef Jacob’s personal recipe for these, and he said “flax meal,” which would be ground flax. So, I guess I didn’t really change the recipe.
