Caramel Sauce1. In a pot or saucepan combine butter, water, cream, and sugar; form a caramel sauce by bringing to a boil over high heat. Allow to until thick.

3. Reduce heat to low and allow caramel sauce to simmer until you are ready for assembly.
Bacon1. Add butter to a frying pan; melt over medium heat. Once butter sizzles, add bacon to pan. Cook to desired crispness; turn bacon over periodically to prevent burning.
2. Remove from heat and set aside.
Pancakes1. In a large bowl sift dry ingredients together. Add wet ingredients and mix well to form pancake batter.
2. Add oil to a large frying pan or griddle. Warm oil over medium heat.
3. With a 2-ounce ladle scoop batter into pan. Each scoop makes 1 pancake. Cook 2-4 pancakes at a time; flipping after 2-3 minutes when batter begins to bubble. When both sides of the pancake are golden brown, remove from heat.
4. Set 1 serving of 4-5 pancakes at a time aside on oven safe plates or cooking tray. Repeat for remainder of batter.
Assembly1. Preheat oven to low broil.
2. Sprinkle cup of cheese on each serving of 4-5 pancakes. Place in oven for 2-4 minutes until cheese has melted.
