Pancake Stacks for Ideal Milk Celebrity Chef Challenge

When we were given 5 minutes to decide what to cook to suit the theme "Food for Kids" or "Santapan Kanak-kanak", for the Ideal Celebrity Chef Challenge, I juggled with a few ideas about what to cook using Ideal Evaporated Milk that looks attractive and tasted delicious... The whole package! I decided it was best to stick with what I cooked often at home... Pancake Stacks!
