Instructions
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine.
In a small bowl, mix together the buttermilk, egg, and peanut butter.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until combined, but still slightly lumpy.
Spray your cooking surface with non-stick cooking spray and place ¼ cup of the pancake batter in the pan.
The batter is very thick and will need spread a bit with the back of a spoon, spatula, or your ¼ cup measure.
Sprinkle immediately with a few pieces of chopped peanut butter cups. Use a spoon to spread a bit of the batter over the candy pieces. Cook for 3 minutes per side or until cooked through. Repeat with remaining pancakes.
Top with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and more candy pieces.
