These fluffy pancakes are layered with a creamy mascarpone filling and drizzled with a rich and luscious coffee syrup. Each bite is a heavenly combination of sweet and bitter flavors that melt in your mouth. The mascarpone filling is the star of the show, giving the pancakes a velvety and creamy texture that's impossible to resist. These pancake stacks are perfect for a lazy Sunday brunch or a special occasion breakfast that will impress your guests.

What is mascarpone?

Mascarpone is an Italian cream cheese that's rich and creamy, with a slightly sweet flavor. It's often used in desserts, like tiramisu, to add a velvety texture and rich taste.

Can I use a different type of syrup?

Yes, you can use any type of syrup you prefer, such as maple syrup or chocolate syrup. However, the coffee syrup is a key element of the tiramisu flavor profile, so using it will give the pancakes a more authentic taste.

Can I make the pancakes ahead of time?

Yes, you can make the pancakes ahead of time and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer. To reheat, simply warm them up in the microwave, oven, or toaster.

Can I make the pancake stacks smaller?

Yes, you can make smaller pancake stacks if you prefer. Just adjust the amount of batter and filling accordingly to make them the desired size.

Can I make the recipe without eggs?

Yes, you can make the pancakes without eggs by using a vegan egg substitute, such as applesauce or mashed banana. However, keep in mind that the texture and flavor of the pancakes may be slightly different than the original recipe.

Can I use a different type of coffee?

Yes, you can use any type of coffee you prefer, but a strong coffee or espresso will give the syrup a bolder flavor. You can also adjust the amount of coffee used to suit your taste preferences.

Ingredients

All Ingredients

2 cups Bisquick Pancake mix

2 eggs

1 ⅓ cup whole milk

1 ½ cup mascarpone cheese

¾ cup heavy whipping cream

⅓ cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

½ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Tiramisu Pancakes

Step 1

In a medium sized bowl mix together the pancake mix, 2 eggs, and milk; the batter should be runnier than normal pancake batter. Set aside.

Step 2

In a second bowl mix together the mascarpone, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Use a whisk or electric mixer to make sure it whips so it is fluffy.

Step 3

Brew or purchase your espresso, mix one part espresso with one part Kahlúa and allow it to cool to room temperature or cooler.

Step 4

Place in a small squirt bottle with a narrow spout. It'll allow you to control it better when building the stack later on.

Step 5

Fire up your griddle or Flat Top Griddle to low heat.

Step 6

Use a ladle, pour out each pancake so it is approximately 4 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Add 5-7 chocolate chips per pancake.

Step 8

Once the sides of the pancake seem solid and cooked flip them to finish them off. Once done cooking remove and set aside to build your stack.
