In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and baking powder. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients then mix in eggs, milk, and butter.
Lightly grease a frying pan and preheat to medium-high heat.
Pour 1⁄4 cup batter onto the hot pan and cook until bubbly and lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more until browned on the second side. Remove from the pan and serve hot.
