  3. Slice 1 ripe banana into thin, round pieces and arrange them on the cream cheese-covered toast.
  4. Place 4 mini chocolate chips on top of each banana slice to create the mummy's eyes.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
  4. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes while preheating a lightly oiled griddle over medium heat.
  5. Pour about ¼ cup of pancake batter onto the griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form.
  6. Flip pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Drizzle chocolate syrup in a spiral on each pancake and create the spiderweb effect.
