Frozen Dessert Pancakes

Pancakes. Warm, comforting and sweet, pancakes are one of the most popular foods in America. They used to be just for breakfast, but now these fluffy creations can be eaten at just about any time of day, even dessert!

Yes, you heard me right. Dessert pancakes are quickly becoming the next foodie trend. Any excuse to load up on yummy toppings, like whip cream, maple syrup and candied nuts. Basically a calorie bomb!

But I am here to tell you I eat pancakes all the time. Yummy, decadent pancakes with loads of amazing toppings. Life is way too short to skip on the toppings, ya know?

So here is my solution to this problem. Ice cream! Yep, sweet, creamy ice cream. Arctic Zero desserts to be specific. I tried out the new flavors on my stack of cakes and this was a home run! My top 3 favorites were Vanilla Maple, Chocolate Cherry Chunk and Purely Chocolate. Topped with sweet cherry preserves, and all natural chocolate syrup and some mini chocolate chips (c’mon, did you really think I would forget that) this meal will satisfy your dessert pancake craving but with a third of the calories!

Even though this looks like a complicated set up, you can make the pancakes and assemble your creation in under 10  minutes.
