The Story
As Swiss Miss transitioned from a localized dairy product to a national pantry staple in the 1970s, the brand began printing versatile uses for their envelopes on the back of the box. This recipe became a favorite for families looking to easily upgrade standard pancake mix into chocolate pancakes without using cocoa powder and sugar separately.
