I often find myself daydreaming about those warm pancakes, especially when strawberries are in season. The beauty is in how simple ingredients come together to create something extraordinary. You whisk the eggs, sugar, and milk into a creamy batter, then cook them to a golden perfection. Each pancake is an opportunity to explore flavors, and adding a rich cream cheese filling elevates the experience. I love serving them with fresh strawberries and a sprinkle of hazelnuts for a delightful crunch.
