Chocolate Fruit Pancakes

Sharing is caring!

I’m a fan of breakfast.  I don’t usually have fancy breakfasts, or even un-fancy breakfasts.  Many times I don’t have breakfasts at all.  But when I have some time, I love to break out the big guns and make pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs, orange juice, etc.  And why not add some chocolate in there too?  We always throw some chocolate chips in our pancakes.

So when I got these new Dove Whole Fruit Dipped in Dark Chocolate candies, that was the first thing I wanted to try–adding them in pancakes!  Sometimes you add fruit, sometimes you add chocolate, so why not add both and have chocolate fruit pancakes!  This was such an easy thing to try.  I loved these little candies, kinda like eating a chocolate covered gummy bear but the grown-up version.  There are so many creative ways to throw these candies into different things to spice them up:  trail mix, ice cream, cereal…so many possibilities!

This is especially decadent because Dove is such a smooth and wonderful chocolate.  Dove is actually the #1 dark chocolate on the market.  And it’s so yummy to have cranberries, blueberries, and cherries dipped in it.  Enjoy!
