Community Crepes! (Halloween Edition!)

So, as everyone knows, Monday is Halloween. We're not big fans of Halloween at my house. David didn't grow up with it, and frankly, it scares the tar out of me. I'm easily frightened, and get Nachtmares easily. So last year we holed up, ate grilled cheese shaped like ghosts, and watched Young Frankenstein. Not sure what we'll do this year, but it's definitely off to a good start with last night's Community!

The basic plot is that Britta, a new Psych major, decided to give everyone a personality test. The tests came back, and the results stated that 1 member of their group had homicidal tendencies. Since the tests were anonymous, Britta decides to make the whole group tell ghosts stories to try and figure out who is the insane one. Ee! So much fun! Recipe!



Orange-Chocolate Pancakes:
1 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. orange extract
3 Tbsp. Orange Marmalade
2 tsp. oil
3/4 cup milk



Mix together your dry ingredients, and then stir in your oil and marmalade til crumbly. Add your milk and extract, until desired consistency. Spoon out onto a hot, greased, griddle and cook about 2-3 minutes on both sides. Om nom! By the way, I like 1/4 cup measure for scooping out batter if you don't want to eyeball it.



Well, that's about it! I did try to pour the batter into a pumpkin shaped cookie cutter, but it was just too detailed, so it didn't end up looking any different. But if you had a bat or a ghost, it might work out well for you, for that extra something. I like that I got to use the black (chocolate) and the orange (orange) for the official Halloween thing. Hope everyone enjoys!
