How to Make BB-8 Pancakes
Ingredients Needed:
- Your favorite pancake batter
- Whipped cream (either homemade or store-bought)
- Orange Food Coloring
- Black M&Ms
- Black Candy Melts
- Cinnamon Sugar
- Decorating Bag and Round Tip
Making BB-8 Pancakes was really easy to do. I mixed up some pancake batter and made two shapes of pancakes. The one for his body was a big round pancake and the pancake for his head was more of an oval shape. I had to make a few to get the right shape.
When I am making decorated pancakes, I typically cook them over low heat so that they don’t get too browned. They take a bit longer, but I like the result better.
Once the pancakes are cooked, place the round pancake in the center of a plate. Cut the pancake for the head in half and add it to the plate.
Place a chocolate candy melt and a black M&M as the buttons or “eyes”.
Then comes the fun part. Add a few drops of orange food coloring to your whipped cream until you get the desired color of orange you want. Then add the cream to a decorating bag (I use my Dessert Decorator
) and use a round tip to decorate your BB-8.
Mix some sugar with a little cinnamon to add as dirt under your BB-8.
Then serve your BB-8 pancakes to your anxiously awaiting kids. They will love them!!
