Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Melt butter in a small pan over low heat and let cool slightly.

Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed; do not overmix.

Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot.

Pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet, forming mini pancakes.

Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook until golden, another 1-2 minutes.

Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm.

In a saucepan, combine cocoa powder, sugar, and heavy cream over medium heat.

Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and begins to simmer, about 3-4 minutes.

Add chocolate chips to the saucepan and stir until melted and glossy.

Serve mini pancakes drizzled with warm chocolate sauce and maple syrup.
