In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should have some lumps.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, spreading them evenly throughout the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or a small amount of oil.
Using a 1/4-cup measure, pour the pancake batter onto the skillet, spacing out each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until fully cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with goat milk whipped cream, maple syrup, and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings, if desired.
