Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (200 grams)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar packed
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk see note for substitute (340.5 grams or 354.8 ml)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled (56.5 grams)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (88.5 grams)

Instructions

Whisk together the flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt
In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
1 1/4 cups buttermilk, 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Gently stir in the chocolate chips.
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Spray lightly with cooking spray. (Or preheat a griddle to 375 degrees Fahrenheit). This low temperature will help the chocolate from burning and it will cook the middle of the pancakes without the edges burning.
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles begin to form in the middle of the pancake, and the bubbles on the outer edge of the pancake have started to harden. Flip, and continue cooking until the pancake is golden brown, about three minutes on each side. Keep in mind that you may need to turn the heat down on a skillet over a gas flame after the first few minutes.

Notes

Making Without Buttermilk: To make a buttermilk replacement, use a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to it. Then fill the measuring cup up the rest of the way to the 1 1/4 cup mark with milk.
