Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, mix eggs, whole milk, buttermilk, vanilla extract, white vinegar, and red food coloring until smooth.
Combine wet and dry ingredients gently; fold in melted butter without overmixing.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake; cook until bubbles form (about 2–3 minutes). Flip and cook until golden brown (about another 2 minutes).
For the cream cheese frosting, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Serve pancakes warm topped with cream cheese frosting and your choice of additional toppings.
