Chocolate pancakes

My daughter had exams and to get her set off for the day, brain food. She told me her teacher at ''eat lots of chocolate'' at 10pm Sunday evening and i said, ''Why did you not tell me soon i could have got some in?'' In Algeria they tell you to take a spoonful of sugar on the morning of the exam so sweetness and a link to brain activity seems evident. Well i was not about to let my dd go deprived so i thought up the perfect
Exam Breakfast
Just your basic pancake recipe and add some cocoa powder or as in my case some drinking chocolate.
For the pancake mixture:
110g/4oz plain flour, sifted
pinch of salt
2 eggs
200ml/7fl oz milk mixed with 75ml/3fl oz water
50g/2oz butter
To serve:
icing sugar (powdered)

and the results are this , everyone had breakfast that morning!
