Naftali’s world famous pamcakes.

Naftali. How can I describe him with words? Well, besides making awesome artwork, intriguing computer games, mindblowing 3d animation, and deciding to live near me in Rhode Island, Naftali makes excellent pamcakes.

No, seriously, they’re incredible. The other night, Naftali snuck over to my house at about 1:30 AM and we made the most excellent pamcakes one can eat. After snapping a few shots while preparing the batter, I noticed how the plate used to hold the pamcakes right off of the griddle stayed empty. There was no table preparation or silverware to be seen–it was straight from the pan into the stomach. Well, I guess there was a bit of chewing, enjoying, and swallowing in addition somewhere in there.

After 30 pamcakes and a half gallon of milk, I asked Naftali if I could share his recipe of pamcakes on the interweb.

“Can I share your recipe online, or is it some sort of secret family heirloom pamcake recipe? I mean, I respect it if you’d like to keep it for special occasions.”

“I got it from The Joy of Cooking.”

1 ½ c flour
1 tsp salt
3 tbs sugar
1 ¾ tsp powder
2 eggs
3 tbs butter
1 - 1 ¼ c milk

Whisk eggs and add in milk and melted butter. Stir dry ingredients then add egg, milk, and butter mix. Fry on griddle until golden brown. Chocolate chips encouraged but optional. Serve in-hand with gigantic glasses of milk.
