Steps
Batter and Filling
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth and lump-free. Do not overmix! In a small bowl, combine the peanut butter with the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.
Cooking
Heat a takoyaki pan over medium heat and lightly grease each well with a little oil or butter. Pour batter into each well, filling it about halfway. Place a teaspoon of the peanut butter-chocolate filling into each well, then pour a little more batter over the top to cover the filling.
Flip and Serve
When the edges of the balls start to set and bubbles appear on top (about 2-3 minutes), use a wooden skewer or small fork to flip them 90 degrees, allowing the still-liquid batter to flow to the bottom. Continue rotating until they are perfectly spherical and golden brown on all sides (about 5-7 minutes total). Remove the cooked balls and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar.
Extra Tips
► If you don't have a takoyaki pan, you can cook the batter as mini pancakes and sandwich the filling between two small pancakes.
► Feel free to use milk chocolate or white chocolate for the filling, according to your preference.
► Sprinkle a little cinnamon or cocoa powder along with the powdered sugar before serving for an extra flavor boost.
