These are so great.  I've made them several times and I don't even worry about what other recipes are out there.  I do add about 2 tsp. of vanilla and I also use a vanilla sugar that I keep (just a separate jar of sugar with a leftover vanilla bean in it to scent the sugar).  I also tend to add a bit more milk, just because I prefer the batter a bit thinner.  But, regardless, this is a great pancake recipe... better than any box I've ever tasted.  As recommended by others, I sift the dry ingredients twice and prepare the wet ingredients separately.  I melt the butter and, because I'm not patient, add a little cold milk to cool the butter down.  Then, I beat the egg into the butter and, when that's fully incorporated, I add the milk.  They are perfect every single time.
