Valentine’s Day Pancake Recipe

Whether we like to admit or not, we all love doing a little extra special something for loved ones to let them know that we just love the heck out of them! A lot of us tend to go over board, but I prefer in making things filled with love. I love cooking, so though that this would just be such a great way to show how much you love that special someone in your life

with food! The recipe is amazing and delicious, the contrasting colors are just plain out adorable. There’s a great place not far away from called, PJ’s Pancake House. I can’t tell you how many years I have spent scarfing down their pancakes like there’s no tomorrow. So, I though to myself…why not add my love affection of my favorite pancake with the notion of Valentine’s Day! Sounds great to me. So, here’s my copy cat recipe of their pancake batter!

I hope you enjoy my recipe, and enjoy making them for the person that you love!
