If you end up not needing to add the rest of the milk, so be it. If it's too thick, then add more milk.Heat a lightly buttered griddle or pan and spoon batter to make small pancakes. Flip when golden brown.you can add the cheese once it flips and then add the second pancake when done. Or you can just cook them all, make sandwiches with the cheese and nuke them in the microwave to melt the cheese.
