Cheesecake Pancakes

These pancakes were a little bite of heaven!! Josh said that each bite with cream cheese in it tasted just like cheesecake. You can bet that these were gone pretty quickly! :) I didn't love the chunks of cream cheese mixed into that batter and I think that next time I would bring it to room temperature and mix it into the batter. That way the cream cheese deliciousness would be spread throughout, not just in bites here and there... But, believe you me, that is the only complete that I had with this recipe! :)



Cheesecake Pancakes

Pancakes:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
2 cups bisquick mix
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup milk
2 eggs

Strawberry Syrup:
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1/2 cup strawberry syrup for pancakes

Slice cream cheese lengthwise into four pieces. Place on ungreased cookie sheet; cover and freeze 8 hours or overnight. Brush griddle or skillet with vegetable oil, or spray with cooking spray; heat griddle to 375 or heat skillet over medium heat. Cut cream cheese into bite size pieces; set aside. In large bowl, stir bisquick, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, milk and eggs with whisk or fork until blended. Stir in cream cheese. For each pancake, pour slightly less then 1/3 cup batter onto hot griddle. Cook until edges are dry. Turn; cook other sides until golden brown. In small bowl, mix strawberries and syrup; top pancakes with strawberries mixture.
