COPYCAT MILK 'N COOKIES PANCAKES

Steps:

• Heat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, salt, and 1/4 cup cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking often, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Chill, uncovered, until cooled completely, about 20 minutes.
• Beat remaining 1/2 cup cream with an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold whipped cream into the cooled cream cheese mixture. Spoon into a piping bag, and chill until ready to use.
• Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for vanilla drizzle in a medium bowl. Cover until ready to use.
• Crush chocolate sandwich cookies and set aside.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
• Whisk buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla in a large measuring cup; pour over dry ingredients. Gently stir until almost incorporated. Drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle with 2 cups crushed cookies. Stir until just incorporated and some lumps remain. Let batter rest for about 5 minutes.
• Heat a griddle to about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease.
• Spoon about 2/3 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Let cook, undisturbed, until bubbles rise to the surface and edges look dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Place 1 pancake on a plate and top with 3 tablespoons of the mousse. Repeat layers twice, and top with a fourth pancake. Repeat with remaining pancakes and mousse. Top each pancake stack with vanilla drizzle and remaining mousse. Sprinkle with remaining crushed cookies.
