OREO™ COOKIES AND CREAM PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• In medium bowl, stir together Bisquick mix, 1 cup milk and egg with whisk until well blended. Slowly stir in 1 cup chopped sandwich cookies.
• Heat griddle or skillet over medium-high heat (375°F). Grease with butter if necessary (or spray with cooking spray before heating). For each pancake, pour about 1/3 cup batter onto hot griddle. Cook about 3 minutes or until edges are dry and bubbles form on top. Turn; cook other side until golden brown. This should make about 5 medium-size pancakes.
• In small bowl, stir together powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons milk.
• To assemble, place 1 pancake on cake stand or plate. Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons powdered sugar mixture. Top with 1 tablespoon chopped sandwich cookies. Repeat layers with remaining pancakes and filling ingredients.

BLUEBERRY PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the blueberries and toss them gently in the flour mixture; this will help keep the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vanilla and eggs. Remove the skillet from the oven and add the oil and butter to the hot skillet. Let the butter melt completely, then pour the oil and butter into the buttermilk mixture and whisk together, fully incorporating the hot fats. Add the liquid mixture into the dry mixture and stir gently until combined and most lumps are gone. Pour the batter into the hot skillet. Bake until the cake is fluffy and golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle, 30 to 35 minutes.
• For the white pancake syrup: While the pancake cooks, add the corn syrup, vanilla and cinnamon to a small saucepan. Stir together and cook over low heat until the syrup is warm and pourable.
• Slice the warm pancake in wedges and serve with the white pancake syrup.

CARROT PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• Stir carrots and raisins packet and hot water together in a bowl.
• Stir carrot cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs together in a bowl until batter is well-combined. Stir carrot-raisin-hot water mixture into batter. Add 1/3 cup chopped pecans to batter; stir in enough flour to reach a pancake-batter consistency.
• Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and brush with melted butter. Drop batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Transfer pancakes to a wire rack to cool.
• Place 1 pancake on a plate and top with a layer of cream cheese frosting. Place another pancake on top of the frosting and top with another layer of cream cheese frosting. Top with a final pancake and garnish with 1/4 of the shredded carrot and 1/4 of the toasted pecans. Repeat with remaining pancakes, frosting, carrots, and pecans to create 3 more cakes.

CONFETTI PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs and vanilla. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour, and stir until combined but still somewhat lumpy. Mix in 1/4 cup of the sprinkles.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle pan over medium-high heat. When hot, lightly brush with oil, then reduce the heat to medium-low.
• In batches, spoon 1/2 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet, and immediately sprinkle some of the remaining sprinkles. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancakes, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until golden brown on the underside and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• As you go, transfer cooked pancakes to a baking sheet, cover loosely with foil, and keep warm in the oven.
• Heat the frosting in the microwave until just barely runny, about 40 seconds (do not overheat or the frosting will separate). Stir.
• Make a giant pancake stack, and pour the warm frosting over the top. Sprinkle with additional sprinkles. Serve immediately.

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE PANCAKE BALLS (WITH CAKE POP MAKER)

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble into small pieces.
• Beat 3 eggs in a small bowl until smooth; pour into the hot skillet. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until scrambled and set, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat a cake pop maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Combine remaining egg, baking mix, milk, and vegetable oil in a large bowl to make pancake batter.
• Fold crumbled bacon, scrambled eggs, and Cheddar cheese gently into the batter.
• Fill wells of preheated cake pop machine with batter. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

PANCAKE CAKE WITH MAPLE CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• To make the pancakes:
• In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rye flour, cornmeal, granulated and brown sugars, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, whole eggs, egg yolks, butter, and vanilla. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and fold in the wet just until moistened.
• Coat 8-inch skillet with some melted butter and heat over medium-low heat. Pour 1/2 cup of the batter into the pan and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, or until large bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake. Carefully flip the pancake over and cook for 1 minute longer, or until the underside is just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter to make 6 pancakes and let cool to room temperature.
• To make the filling:
• In a bowl, with and electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and yogurt until smooth. Beat in 4 tablespoons of the maple syrup and the confectioners' sugar until well combined.
• To assemble the cake:
• Spread each pancake with one-sixth of the filling (about 5 tablespoons). Place one of the pancakes on a platter and stack the remaining pancakes on top. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup over the top of the cake.

BLACK FOREST PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• Combine milk and eggs in a blender; pulse until well mixed. Add flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt; pulse until batter is well blended. Add water 1 tablespoon at a time if batter appears too thick.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop 1/3 cup batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter until you have at least 6 pancakes. Transfer pancakes to a wire rack to cool.
• Mix cherry puree and vodka together in a bowl.
• Brush 1 pancake with cherry puree mixture and pipe whipped cream on the edge of the pancake; top with another pancake. Repeat until all the pancakes, cherry puree mixture, and whipped cream are used. Top with sweet cherries and chocolate shavings. Cut cake using a serrated knife.

BLACK-AND-WHITE PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a griddle over low heat for at least 10 minutes. (You want the griddle nice and hot over as low heat as possible to avoid burning the pancakes and to give them ample time to cook through.)
• 2. Make the pancakes: Whip up a batch of Maple Chocolate Cake, adding the water to the wet ingredients before whisking the batter until smooth.
• 3. Spray the griddle generously with nonstick spray. Making 2 pancakes at a time, pour two 1/2-cup scoops of batter onto the griddle. Use the back of a spoon to gently swirl and coax the pancakes into 7-inch circles. Cook the pancakes until the edges appear dry and set and bubbles are no longer popping on the surfaces, about 4 minutes on the first side. Use a thin, flexible metal spatula to gently flip the pancakes. Cook about 2 minutes more, or until the centers of the pancakes spring back when lightly touched. Remove the layers to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat the batter scooping and cooking process until you have 8 cake layers.
• 4. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and place 4 cake layers in a single layer on each sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
• 5. Make the cream filling: Pour the cream into a medium bowl. Whip the cream on high speed to stiff peaks. In a separate medium bowl, place the mascarpone, maple syrup, and vanilla bean paste. Beat on low speed, just until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 30 seconds-don't overbeat, or the mascarpone will seize. Gently fold in the whipped cream until smooth.
• 6. Make the ganache filling: Combine the bittersweet chocolate with the cream in a small heatproof bowl. Microwave on high power for 45 to 60 seconds. Whisk the ganache until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth and the texture of chocolate pudding. Remove about 2 tablespoons of ganache to a small bowl and set aside for garnish.
• 7. To assemble the cake, remove the pancake layers from the refrigerator. Inspect the layers; choose the most handsome to be the top layer and set it aside. Place 1 cake layer on a serving platter or cake stand. Dollop on 1/3 cup ofthe maple mascarpone cream and use a small offset spatula to smooth it out, with a l/2-inch border all around. Place a second layer on top, and press lightly to help it adhere. Spread about 2 1/2 tablespoons of ganache onto the layer, also with a 1/2-inch border around the cake. Continue the layering process 6 more times, alternating maple mascarpone cream and chocolate ganache with the layers, placing the best-looking cake layer on top.
• 8. To the remaining chocolate ganache, add a drizzle of cream, only about l/2 teaspoon or so, just enough to thin itto a honeylike consistency (warm the ganache in the microwave for about lO seconds or so to loosen it up first, if necessary). Drizzle the ganache artfully over the cake. Chill the cake for about 30 minutes before serving. This cake can be made up to 1 day in advance (let it soften on the counter for 15 minutes before slicing).

CHOCOLATE PRALINE PANCAKE CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare pancakes following a classic recipe (see 'Goes well with').
• Lightly brush a baking sheet with sunflower oil. Tip the caster sugar into a medium-size saucepan, add 2-3 tbsp of water and set the pan over a low-medium heat to allow the sugar to slowly dissolve into the water. Bring to the boil and continue to cook until the syrup becomes amber-coloured caramel.
• Working quickly, tip the blanched almonds and salt into the pan and continue to cook for 30 secs-1 min until the caramel turns deep amber and the almonds are toasted. Tip the praline onto the oiled baking sheet and leave until completely cold and hardened. Break the praline into chunks and whizz in the food processor until coarsely chopped.
• To make the chocolate sauce, combine all the ingredients in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth and silky. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lay one pancake in the bottom of a 20cm springform tin and spread over 1 tbsp of chocolate sauce. Scatter with chopped praline and top with another pancake. Continue in this manner until you have used all 12 pancakes, topping the stack with a pancake.
• Cover the tin with foil and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for around 20 mins or until hot through. Gently warm the remaining chocolate sauce, cut the cake into wedges and serve scattered with the remaining praline chocolate sauce, and a bowl of lightly whipped cream alongside.

PANCAKE CAKE WITH BERRIES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Combine the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and 2 teaspoons of the vanilla extract in a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or a medium bowl and whisk until incorporated. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and gently whisk until combined, being careful not to overmix (small lumps are okay). Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place 2 cups of the berries in a medium bowl and mash with a fork until fairly smooth. Place the remaining 2 cups berries in another medium bowl, add 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup and gently toss to coat. Set the berries aside to macerate.
• When the batter is ready, heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 tablespoon butter and swirl the butter in the skillet as it melts to evenly distribute. Pour 1 cup of the batter into the center and cook until large bubbles begin to form on the surface of the batter and the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Carefully flip the pancake and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining butter and batter to make 4 more pancakes and allow all the pancakes to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, whip the cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed until smooth and light, about 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl and the whisk halfway through with a rubber spatula to ensure there are no lumps.
• Add the heavy cream, the remaining 4 tablespoons maple syrup and the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Raise the speed to high and continue to whip until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes more.
• Assemble the cake by placing 1 pancake on the center of a serving plate. Using an offset or small spatula, evenly spread about 3/4 cup of the cream cheese mixture onto the pancake, followed by 1/4 cup of the mashed berry mixture, spreading both components all the way to the edges of the pancake.
• Top with another pancake and repeat the process with the remaining cream cheese mixture, mashed berry mixture and pancakes. Top with 3 to 4 tablespoons of the whole berries and a drizzle of their juices. Serve each slice with some of the remaining whole berries and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.
