The first recipe I prepared was a recipe for pancakes that was on the backside of a box of Bisquick™. I was only 9 years old and since I had no idea what a measuring cup or measuring spoon was, I found it easier to follow the instructions to prepare the whole content of the box. I don’t remember the size of the box, but I do remember preparing stacks and stacks of pancakes. Being surrounded by so many pancakes was a dream come true because I absolutely loved them. Thirty years later, I still love them all the same. I prepare them every weekend for my family and they love this recipe most. These cream cheese and lemon pancakes are spongy, light and they’re the perfect breakfast for a sunny spring morning.
