Just when it seemed like pancakes couldn't possibly get any better, Denny's has taken them to the next level with the debut of Double Chocolate Pancake Puppies. Not only are the new pancakes bursting with rich chocolate flavor, but they're also bite-sized for easy dipping (and sharing).
Denny's Pancake Puppies are essentially a sweet take on hushpuppies, which are deep-fried dough balls made from a cornmeal-based batter. Double Chocolate Pancake Puppies take the delicious dish to a whole new level with Ghirardelli cocoa and chocolate chips. The bite-sied, chocolate pancake balls are then "tossed in powdered sugar and served with a side of cream cheese icing." The dish can be served in order of six or 10 for those who don't mind sharing.
