This might be my favorite out of the four recipes I've shared because it has both peanut butter AND chocolate. Come on now, does life get any better than that??? If you want to check out the previous posts, click here for the first post, second post, and third post.

Not to be too redundant, but in post's 1 and 2 from this series I explained about an article I did for Spoonful Mag a few years ago. The article featured recipes, photos, and inspiration for throwing your own pancake party breakfast. You can get a copy of the magazine - Summer 2016 – Volume One, Issue Two – “Dog Days”, or you can even get a yearly subscription.

I'm really excited for this summer season, what about you? I don't know, I just think it's going to be a great one.

Well, I hope you have some fun things planned and good memories to be made with family and friends. Basically, life's too short so I think we need to go make some pancakes and chill out a little, am I right?? Thanks for reading you guys, you're the best!

Nice finish to the big breakfast! The chunk monkey waffles look good, but I'm a fruit person. So I'm going with the orange-strawberry compote and waffle. That leaves more chunky monkey waffles for you, at least, lol! And congratulations again for scoring that magazine spread -- it's really nice!

You continually compose some of the most thought out and considerate comments. In fact I would say that you are the best 'commenter' that consistently contributes to my posts. I really appreciate it @haphazard-hstead.

Wow, you must be famous.
Great receipe

Well, I don't know about famous, but maybe some day.
