Happy Pancake Day to y’all!
I’m excited so many people are up for the Dessert Pancake-Making Bonanza!
Pancakes are like blank canvases, screaming to be decorated. I’m sure y’all have some yumlicious ideas… but just in case, here are a few I’ve brainstormed:
- Snickerdoodle Pancakes
- Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes (topped with Cheesecake Mousse)
- Larabar Pancakes (topped with chopped dates and your favorite Larabar embellishments)
- German Chocolate Pancakes
- Carrot Cake Pancakes
- Tiramisu Pancakes
- The aforementioned Pina Colada Pancakes
Or you can always use the Any-Flavor Pudding as a topper for any flavor pancake. I’ll stop listing now, as I don’t want to take anyone’s idea. Don’t you hate it when you have the best idea for a project until the teacher goes and uses it as an example?? In case you missed the last post and therefore have no clue what this Pancake Challenge is all about, I thought I’d do a quick review. But first…
Sorry, I couldn’t resist putting that German Chocolate Pancake photo up one more time.
Dessert Pancake-Making Bonanza:
To participate, all you have to do is create a fantabulous pancake recipe and blog about it, linking back to the challenge. (If you’re stumped for ideas, just think of your favorite dessert and then Pancake-ify it!) Let’s talk Prizes: As I said in my last post, the real prize is all the fun we can have admiring each others’ pancake artwork. But, one random participant will also win something else of his or her choosing, from: Artisana, PB&Co, or a CCK-Photoshopped Creation, such as a personalized magazine cover (you on your favorite magazine), cereal box cover, or whatever else you can dream up. Below, an example (obviously, I’d use the winner’s picture, details, and choice-of-magazine in place of mine)
Now go put on your chef hats and let the pancake-making commence! (Baking Bonanza ends July 18th.)

I’m in as long as I can get moved into my new kitchen quickly
The hubby gave me a perfect idea!
LOL, love that magazine cover of you, Katie. Haha, you do love your photoshop
.
Oooh I’m so excited to get started on some pancake brain storming!
the carrot cake pancake idea sounds super good!
I’ll definitely take part in this Katie! Snickerdoodle pancakes sound fantastic, you should post a recipe for them. Wow those German chocolate pancakes look really, really yummy. Too sad I already had breakfast.
Hahaha! Love this post, especially the magazine cover! All your ideas are making me drool, by the way.
such a fun contest!
Haha Katie, I love your photoshopping! I’m going on vacation in Florida soon, so maybe I’ll get some tropical ideas there :]
Enjoy your day!
I’ve made carrot cake pancakes before! They were delicious! I actually used your recipe for the base too =)
I’m gonna have to hop on the pancake making boat ASAP!
Haha I love your photoshopping. I was totally going to do tiramisu pancakes! Sounds like the perfect morning dessert since it can include caffeine!
love the mag cover
I made my first pancake creation this morning and I already have a few other ideas in mind
it was fun!
At my undergrad, during finals we would have “Pancake Study Breaks” where the cafeteria would open at like 11PM with a pancake bar full of fun toppings!
Snickerdoodle pancakes sound awesome! That was always one of my German fam recipes, and I usually dont even know that many people that have heard of snickerdoodles! I’d love the see the recipe you dreamed up for this!
i’m on it, doggone it! today, i made pumpkin pancakes from vegan brunch, but i know that doesn’t count. ((tenting fingers)) ooooh do i have an idea! i’ll post it sometime this weekend.
xo jen

Mmmmm, dessert pancakes. Have I said that before? HA! They are pretty drool worthy.
most sexy picture!!!
I know what my first recipe is going to be but I’m not telling yet.
Oh my gosh!! You have the BEST looking pancakes right there!!
OH. Coconut lime pancakes? HELLO !!
haha. xo
Aw, the photoshopped prize is the best ever! Hopefully, I’ll find some pancake-makin’ time. By the way, my granola came in and it is SOOOOOO good. Best granola I’ve ever had. Seriously. Probably because I got to choose what went in it. I’m gonna blog about the company in my Thursday post, that way it’ll stay up all weekend (I never blog on weekends).
Hey CCV! I JUST discovered your blog, and I’m SO HAPPY. I love (good!) new blog finds!
Anyways, great blog, please keep posting, and I have a weird comment:
You ever think of trying out for America’s next top model? They have started (at least for this season) accepting shorter entrants….just a thought! You certainly have the beauty and the “build” for it.
Anyways, love your blog!
What a great idea! I love that pancake pic.
And you are such a whiz w/ Photoshop!!
Ok now I really need to get crackin!!
Oh man, I just made peanut-butter banana nut pancakes the other day and didn’t take a picture of them. Gonna have to think of something to top that!
And those german chocolate pancakes look phenomental- my boyfriend is german and he never makes me anything like that!
you are a photoshop machine, haha, love it! i just bought a silken tofu and am thinking a CCV pudding creation is in my future.
You are killing me with this. I am catching up on your blog and it is making me SOOO hungry! I am supposed to be staying away from sweets, but I have a soft spot in my heart for all things carrot cake. I will be trying some of those recipes soon!
Aww I hope you like whatever you try first!!!
