Recipe for "choc-pancakes"

NAME

     CHOC-PANCAKES - Brownies in a skillet
     This recipe is based on a ``chocolate turtle'' recipe by Mae
     Rabenius  from a cookbook produced by Faith United Methodist
     Church in Phoenix, Arizona.

INGREDIENTS (40 pieces)

     175 g     margarine
     80 g      cocoa
     200 g     flour
     275 g     sugar
     4         eggs
     10 ml     vanilla
     2.5 ml    salt
     125 ml    butter cream frosting

PROCEDURE

          (1)  Melt the margarine and mix with the cocoa.
          (2)  In a small bowl, mix flour and salt.
          (3)  In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs. Then add sugar,
               vanilla, and beat well.
          (4)  Add flour and margarine mixture to this and  blend
               thoroughly.
          (5)  Heat skillet to medium low. Drop small clumps  (15
               ml)  and cook like pancakes: about 11/2 minutes on
               one side, 1/2 minute on the other, then turn  over
               again and remove after a few seconds.
          (6)  Freeze. When relatively hard, coat one  side  with
               buttercream frosting.

NOTES

     One side of the pancakes may burn. It  doesn't  particularly
     affect  the  taste,  and if you frost this side, no one will
     even know.
     It's not necessary to cook the pancakes completely;  if  the
     middle  looks  somewhat gooey, don't fret: it will soon har-
     den.

RATING

     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 10 minutes preparation, 30  minutes
     to  cook, 10 minutes to frost.  Precision: approximate meas-
     urement OK.
