In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, whole milk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and red food coloring. Mix until smooth.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Don’t overmix—lumps are okay! Let the batter sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the glaze.
In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer (or whisk) to beat the cream cheese and butter together until fluffy.
Add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding a little more milk if needed. Set aside.
Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle. If the batter is thick, gently spread it out with the back of your measuring cup.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side until the pancake is set and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes per side).
Stack the pancakes on a plate, spreading a layer of cream cheese glaze between each one if desired. Add a drizzle on top for looks.
Drizzle more glaze over the top and garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh berries, or a few heart-shaped sprinkles for an extra festive touch.
