Léo celebrated his 30th birthday in New Zealand while we were living in our van. No excuse, we needed a cake for the occasion! So here’s a chocolate peanut pancake. Not the lightest, nor the most photogenic, but it did the job: Léo blew out the candles!

STEPS:
Make the chocolate pancakes according to this recipe and add only the cocoa powder to the batter.
Form a stack of chocolate pancakes with a thin layer of peanut butter between each one.

As soon as the chocolate is melted (this takes about 3 minutes), pour the icing over the stack of pancakes.
Place candles and get ready to sing.
