In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. It's okay if the batter is a little lumpy.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of vegetable oil or non-stick spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, leaving space between each one.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm by placing them on a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel or in an oven set at a low temperature.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
