Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.25 cups buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (such as Kahlúa)
• 2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur (such as Baileys)
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0 whipped cream (for topping)
• 0 chocolate syrup (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, vanilla extract, coffee liqueur, Irish cream liqueur, and melted butter.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's fine if there are a few lumps.

Step 4

Gently fold in the chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5

If making pancakes, heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. For waffles, preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease the plates.

Step 6

For pancakes, scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form and the edges begin to set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 7

For waffles, pour the appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron's guidelines), close, and cook until golden and crisp. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes or waffles warm, topped with whipped cream and drizzled with chocolate syrup for an indulgent finish.
