Tiramisu Buttermilk Pancakes

1. While you’re making the batter, heat your skillet on medium heat.

3. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together eggs. Then add the buttermilk and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture. If the batter is thick, add 1/4 cup of milk at a time until the batter is thinner. Fold the miniature chocolate chips into the batter.
