February Sprinkles
From the drudgery of winter two holidays collide and burst into a sprinkle-y, festive holiday smack dab in the middle of the month.
Ash Wednesday and Valentines are on the same day this year. So, let’s do a mash up of our favorite holiday treats.
All we have to do is mix and match some SPRINKLES!
These are my favorites!

Servings
Serves 4 – 6
Time To Prepare
30 minutes ‘til it’s ready
Ingredients
For Glaze
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 4 ounces cream cheese, cut into chunks
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- Kosher salt
For Pancakes
- 2 cups My Way pancake mix*
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles
- 2 cups milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
Heat the cream in a deep pot over medium heat. Add the maple syrup, cream cheese, and vanilla. Season with a tad of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and just beginning to bubble, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
Place pancake mix into a large bowl. Add the sprinkles. Stir in milk, eggs, vanilla, and melted butter until smooth. Heat a grill over medium high heat. Ladle about ¼ to ½ cup batter onto the grill. Cook until bubbles form on the top of the cake and the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, about 3 minutes more.
Pile several pancakes onto a plate. Spoon the warm glaze over the top. Sprinkle more sprinkles all over.
