My Cinnamon Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake is made with a pancake mix! This simple and delicious coffee cake can be thrown together in a matter of minutes for unexpected company, or just for yourself!
I have been wanting to make a coffee cake with Hungry Jack pancake mix for the longest time now. Why? Because I have three boxes of it in my pantry.
I’m not quite sure why, but lately every time I have needed syrup, Hungry Jack brand has been on sale, AND there has been a hang tag on the syrup for FREE pancake mix when you buy the syrup.
So I decided to try just a basic coffee cake recipe from their website. Of course I had to make a few adaptations, at this point it’s just kind of a given. 🙂
Let’s take a look and I can tell you how I made my Cinnamon Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake.
This pancake & waffle mix is great to have on hand for quick pancakes when the kids are begging you to make pancakes, again!
Today my coffee cake has a lighter crumb coating on top. Sometimes I make coffee cake with a lighter crumb coating, sometimes I make it with a heavier crumb coating.
A lighter touch just seemed right for this coffee cake.
Enjoy your coffee cake my friends!
