Make sure the milk is at room temperature when adding to the bowl, otherwise it can cause the butter to seize up and clump, which will clog the squeeze bottle.
Some more ideas for Halloween shaped pancakes are pumpkins, witch's hat and mummies.
This pancake batter will be on the thinner side so it flows easily out of the squeeze bottle and fills in the body of your design.
Make sure to break up any clumps, even small ones, this prevents it from clogging the tip of the squeeze bottle.
Draw the images quickly and cook at a low temperature (200 F) so the pancakes cook evenly.
Keep the tip of the squeeze bottle close to the griddle surface, this allows for better control when outlining your design.
