• 1 tablespoon baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 3/4 cups milk

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Combine flour, morsels, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Combine milk, eggs, oil and brown sugar in medium bowl; add to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter may be lumpy). 2. Heat your griddle or skillet over medium heat; brush lightly with oil. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle into the shape of a heart; cook until bubbles begin to burst. Turn; continue to cook about 1 minute longer or until golden. Repeat with remaining batter. (For perfectly shaped pancakes, brush inside of cookie cutters with oil; place on griddle. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into the cookie cutters and cook until bubbles begin to burst. Remove cookie cutters. Turn; continue to cook about 1 minute longer or until golden.) SPRINKLE with powdered sugar before serving.

**Note: This recipe calls for hand shaping the hearts, or using heart shaped cookie cutters. If you do not have heart shaped cookie cutters, you can make your own with aluminum foil!

Enjoy!
