Instructions

Preparation Make the pancake batter

Step 1: Mix dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Step 2: Mix wet ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1½ cups milk, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup melted butter.
Step 3: Combine wet and dry
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix—some small lumps are okay.
Step 4: Fold in the crushed Oreos
Gently fold in 1 cup of crushed Oreos. Reserve a few tablespoons for topping if desired.

Cook the pancakes

Step 5: Heat the skillet
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
Step 6: Cook pancakes
Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter.

Make the cream cheese drizzle

Step 7: Beat the cream cheese
In a medium bowl, beat 4 oz softened cream cheese until smooth.
Step 8: Add sugar and flavor
Add 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gradually add ¼ cup milk and whisk until smooth and pourable. Adjust the milk to reach your desired drizzle consistency.

Assemble and serve

Step 9: Stack and drizzle
Stack 2–3 pancakes per plate. Drizzle generously with the cream cheese mixture.
Step 10: Add toppings
Top with a dollop of whipped cream, extra crushed Oreos, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence.

Notes

Crush Oreos by placing them in a sealed bag and rolling with a rolling pin or pulsing in a food processor.
Soften cream cheese to room temperature for easier mixing.
If batter is too thick, add a splash more milk.
Pancakes cook best on medium heat—too hot and they’ll brown before the center is done.
Cream cheese drizzle can be made ahead and stored in the fridge, then reheated gently.
