2½ cups plus 2 tbsp. 2% milk, divided
¼ cup cocoa
½ oz. red food coloring
1 lb. buttermilk pancake mix
1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
4 oz. butter, softened
Confectioners’ sugar
Sliced fresh strawberries
Steps
1. In large bowl, combine 2½ cups milk and cocoa; whisk to mix thoroughly. Stir in red food coloring; whisk again to blend. Whisk in pancake mix and ¼ cup granulated sugar; mix to form a smooth batter.
2. In medium bowl, combine cream cheese, butter and ¼ cup granulated sugar. With mixer, beat ingredients until blended. Gradually add enough confectioners’ sugar until mixture turns thick and pasty. Thin with enough milk to reach a creamy consistency. Set aside.
