Ingredients

  • 150 ml milk
  • 3 tbsp Nutella
  • 2 tbsp melted butter plus more for frying
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tsp caster sugar
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Heat the milk in a microwave or small pan with the Nutella and whisk until melted. Leave to cool then whisk in the 2 tbsp butter, egg and sugar.
  • Put the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder in a bowl and mix in the salt. Gradually whisk the wet into the dry ingredients to make a batter. Tip into a jug.
  • Heat a large frying pan and brush with butter. Pour in batter to make small pancakes approx. 10cm across – cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip over and cook for another minute. Keep warm in a low oven while you make the rest.
  • To make the sauce, gently heat the ingredients in a small pan, whisking until shiny (add a splash of water if it's too thick). Pour over stacked pancakes to serve.
