A few years ago I went out into the world to search for the perfect hotcake. These tasty, batter fried in the pan treats have been called a variety of different names; Hotcakes, griddlecakes, flapjacks and most commonly pancakes. What I found on my search were some pretty good cakes. More often than not I was disappointed by sour wheat flour cakes that needed a ton of syrup to drown out the bitter flavor. Then one day I tried Walter MacCarthy's (Liam's Grandpa) recipe. I didn't think much of it in print as the recipe called for bisquick, which everyone knows is used by people that don't know how to cook or bake. Let me put it this way, I have a new respect for bisquick and I think I may have found the perfect pancake. I have not closed my mind to something better and if you know of a better cake, please send me the recipe to try. In the mean time ... Allow me to present: (btw: if beer is impossible use ginger ale) |
