• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Vegetable oil or cooking spray

5. Pour the pancake batter into a squeezable plastic bottle or a piping bag with a small round tip for more precision.

8. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
9. In a small saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, heavy cream, butter, and honey over low heat. Stir until melted and smooth.
