Raspberry & Chocolate Pancake Puffs (Aebleskivers)
Stuffed with raspberries and chocolate, these little pancake puffs make a fun, festive treat for breakfast or brunch. Inspired by a Danish holiday dish called Aebleskivers – except skipping the traditional tricky pan in lieu of an easy, convenient donut hole / cake pop machine (which also helps keep the calorie and fat count down.)
