Instructions

For the pancakes:

Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter thoroughly.
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, eggs, salt, milk, food coloring, and whisk until smooth.
In another skillet heated over medium-high heat, add a little butter. Scoop 2 generous tablespoons of the batter and pour them into the center of the skillet. Use the back of the spoon to spread the mixture into a round shape.
Cook the pancake on one side until small bubbles form on the top, then flip it with a spatula.
Once cooked, transfer to a plate. Repeat the process, gradually reducing the diameter of the pancakes to create a Christmas tree shape.

For the whipped cream:

In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and powdered sugar. Whip on high speed until soft peaks form, then transfer it to a piping bag with a star tip.

For the assembly:

Place the largest pancake on a large plate and spread whipped cream on top. Continue stacking the pancakes from largest to smallest, decorating with whipped cream in between.
Serve the Christmas tree, sprinkled with colorful truffles.

Notes

Chef’s tip: If you let the batter sit in the fridge for a day, the pancakes will turn out even fluffier and tastier!
