Chocolate Pancakes + Honey Sweetened Cocoa Ganache (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)(with nutrition facts!)

in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

Do you ever have days where words come into your mind and you are able to articulate everything that you want to say? This happens to me a lot. Sometimes the words come faster than I am able to think them and I end up saying really stupid stuff. Does this happen to you?

Today isn’t one of those days…… I keep expecting the words to come and they don’t. In fact I am tempted to write, “Chocolate Pancakes-make them, eat them, love them. The End.” I could very easily leave it at that.

I feel that this would be unjust towards these pancakes and towards my readers though. You have probably come here expecting a long-worded explanation of these beauties and perhaps why I made them. These pancakes deserve some introduction.

Well, these pancakes are definitely something you need to try. They are dark and somewhat mysterious. However, they are also delicious. As usual, I couldn’t help myself from going a little overboard with the toppings. "Aren’t chocolate pancakes enough on their own?" you may ask. Well, I think there's always room for some extra chocolate!

No, I had to go and add a rich ganache, a sprinkle of raspberries, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Talk about a chocolate heart attack.

You have to admit that this would be a pretty satisfying way to go. Would it not?

Oh, and some of you have been asking me about nutrition facts so I thought I'd give it a shot and see what you think. Here are the nutrition facts for 1/10 of the recipe (pancakes only, without syrup or toppings). Let me know in the comments if you'd like me to start including this.

Ok these are just perfection. Did you freeze the raspberries before adding them as a topping? They look so perfect! As always, your pics are on point. I have a NikonD5200 and have been playing around with different lenses - I think I need to try yours for sure!

Yes, I did freeze the berries @real-refined. My favorites lens is only one of the ones I have but I definitely use it the most. Thanks for reading.

Wow - The photos are amazing . I will not temp myself with these, right now as I am on a weight loss journey . But they look Great!

Great Post. Looks very Yummy!
Upvoted.

I really appreciate it @shasol!

It really happens to me too so many times my friend, the words just don't come, i know that feeling!!
Well what to say more about these wonderfully cooked and plated pancakes...Just heavenly!
Btw concerning the nutrition facts, i personally i'm not interested in looking into it, well i don't know who does anyway!
If it is taking up some precious time of yours, well i would not make it!
Well just my personal views.

Thanks for sharing your opinion @progressivechef! I'm glad to know you like the recipe and I'm actually really happy to know you don't have interest in nutrition facts as it gives me something to consider.

You are most welcomed my friend! I have infact never really interested in nutrition facts, like i said in my comments, I don't know who really does! Or it's just put there just like that.
I'm so glad you appreciated my comments and views!

Wow great.I like to touch its taste

Wow, "touch its taste." That's a new one but I like how it sounds

This looks incredible and I LOVE the nutrition guide at the end... I could eat two of these I wasn't expecting it to be this low in Calories ;)!!!

Aw fantastic, you noticed the nutrition guide. It took a while to compile that so I am really glad somebody appreciated it. Thanks for taking the time to tell me @laurenkavanagh

Yes I can imagine it would be really difficult when making it from scratch so good on you for managing it so well... It is something I look at closely when eating food a bit of an obsession with macros etc. So I love that you have this guideline :D

I would love to prove this...

Thanks @jsantana! I'm so glad you like this!

A tower that is meant to collapse...euh, eaten and swallowed! I add this one to my list of recipes I already have from you.

I hope it works out for @edje. Thanks bunches for taking the time to comment

I gained 10 pounds just looking at the photos. It looks delicious.

Well, we need more workout post on steemit to help balance it out, LOL . Thanks @outwalking

For me that is so true.

Great recipes. You are a great cook i guess making all Steemit friends hungry all the time :)

Thanks so much for commenting @nainaztengra

This looks pretty good and I am SURE it is!
Though as fancy as it is and even though its chocolate and probably many peoples favorite thing those pretzel brownies you just posted are still in my mind!

ahahhahahahahahaha

I'm thrilled that I created something that is 'still on your mind' @quinneaker. Thanks bunches for taking the time to stop by and comment!

hahahahaha yes I don't dwell on much especially food as it is a very temporal thing.....In truth I forgot about it pretty quick after I was done looking at your super delicious page and got back to work!
;-)>
Now I remember it again and would trade something nice for one of those mouthgasmic bites right now ;-)>

I am happy to stop by your page and would do it more often if I were not so busy. Also happy to leave a comment to support such high quality creations!

You have a new fan! =)>

I'm glad to have a new fan. I've paid attention to you since that video you made in the dark, speed cooking on your outdoor oven. I thought it was awesome. I guess that's been about 1 year ago, or very close to it

Yes it has been about a year....I remember that....It was pretty cool. I think I made a whole meal in 15 minutes on the earthen oven over open flame in the outdoor kitchen!

I am glad we have more interaction now and hope we get to alchemize delicious dishes together one day!

That would be awesome, 'alchemizing' together some delicious dishes to share the love with others

Yes it would!

Plus from your last comment I find out you know a bit about community life also! Probably a lot different than my community life but intriguing none the less!

I hope one day we get to share such feasting with the ones we love together!

Bless it be∞§∞
