Instructions

In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Monin Roasted Hazelnut and 1 ¼ cups of milk; add to flour mixture, stirring only until smooth. Blend in melted butter. If the batter seems too thick to pour, add a little more milk. Cook on a hot, greased griddle, using about 1/3 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbly, a little dry around the edges, and lightlybrowned on the bottom; turn and brown the other side.
Serve topped with Monin Dark Chocolate Sauce and roasted hazelnuts (if desired).
