Directions
1. Mix up your favorite pancake recipe or mix. I used a basic buttermilk recipe and threw in a handful (okay, fine ... TWO handfuls) of chocolate chips. Cook as directed, aiming for pancakes that are about 3"-4" in diameter. Need some pancake inspiration? I've gathered a collection of pancakes ranging from basic buttermilk to decadent treats!

2.You have two options for melting your jumbo marshmallow: Put the marshmallow on a skewer and toast it over a low gas burner on your stove until it is golden brown and melted all the way through. OR Place the marshmallow on top of one pancake and microwave for 20-30 seconds on High. Keep an eye on it, because it will expand quite a lot this way!

3. Sandwich the toasted/melted marshmallow between two pancakes and smoosh it down so all that gooey goodness comes squishing out of the sides just a bit. Drizzle with chocolate syrup and gobble it up!

4. Go clean your face. You've got chocolate and marshmallow all over your chin!
