Pancake Balls

This is a good afternoon snack for kids during holidays. Children love chocolate and it is like a surprise when they take the first bite and they see the chocolate oozing out. You can also use cheese or fruit jam instead of chocolate. For pan cake batter you can use store bought instant pancake powder too.


Basic Pancake Batter
All purpose flour - 2 cups
baking powder - 3 tsp
egg - 1
salt - 1 tsp
sugar - 2 tbsp
milk - 1 1/2 cup
oil - 3 tbsp
Butter for frying

Sift the flour with baking powder. Beat the egg. Add milk, salt and sugar and mix well till the sugar dissolves. Add oil and stir the sifted flour slowly into the liquid. keep it aside for 10 minutes.

For stuffing
Chocolate  - 1/2 cup(hershey's mini chips)
Three cheese - 1/2 cup

Heat an Aebleskiver pan/Neyyappam pan. Brush butter on the pan. Keep the flame low to medium. Fill half of each pit with pancake batter. Put some chocolate chip into each then add some more batter to cover them. When the bottom is cooked turn the top portion to touch the bottom. See that all sides are evenly cooked. In the next batch instead of chocolate add three cheese or fruit jam.
