3. The Funny Face Technique:

4. Drizzle a small amount of batter from a teaspoon onto the hot griddle or frying pan to make funny eyes, nose and mouth - or any design you'd like (hearts? the alphabet?; When they puff up, pour about 1/4 cup batter over them -right on top, covering your design.

These were fun to make but very difficult for me. I am not artistic and I could only get the basic 2 eyes and a mouth. My kids say I need to practice and I will get better.
