If the French are not afraid of their chocolate croissants for breakfast, I say Viva La France and let us all embrace chocolate for breakfast. I cannot start my day without drinking Crio Bru so to eat chocolate in one form or another is just a step up from that...and after all, chocolate is a superfood...full of amazing health giving properties...are you with me? Are you feeling the chocolate lurve?

More
As you are drizzling the EVOO onto the pancakes as a topping, do not use any old olive oil. You must use a top quality product otherwise you will be sending me hate mail...It is worth purchasing a great EVOO for just such a thing. Reserve it for instances where the oil is used as a dressing or topping as in this recipe.
