Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt.

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and vanilla.

Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then stir in the melted butter.

Heat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat.

Pour 1/3 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake to make the faces of the Elves.

Cook until bubbles form in the middle, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from the griddle.

Continue this process to make approximately 6 large pancakes.

Then make approximately 12 small oval pancakes as well for the ears of the elves.

Place a pancake on each serving plate.  Place 2 small oval pancakes on each side of the large pancakes to make the elf ears.

Use the raspberries to make the design of the hats on the elves and to use for the rosie cheeks on the elves.

Make the faces with the chocolate chips and whipped cream.  Then use the whipped cream to decorate the elves' hats.

Place the nutella in a ziplock bag.  Cut off a corner of the bag and use the nutella to make the mouths and hair around the edge of the hats on the elves.

Then the pancakes are ready to serve and enjoy with syrup!
