Instructions:

1. Make the Pancake Batter:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined—don’t overmix! Fold in the crushed Oreos.

2. Cook the Pancakes:

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.

3. Make the Cream Cheese Drizzle:

In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons of milk. Whisk until smooth. Add more milk as needed to get a pourable consistency.

4. Assemble & Serve:

Stack the pancakes on a plate, drizzle generously with the cream cheese glaze, and sprinkle with extra crushed Oreos for that wow factor.
