Time 1m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 eggs
½ cup milk
½ cup water
¾ cup all-purpose flour
6 teaspoons white sugar
⅓ tablespoon butter or margarine
1 fluid ounce cognac
1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
3 cups heavy cream
4 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
½ cup butter or margarine
1 ¼ cups nonfat evaporated milk
2 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Crepe batter: in a large bowl, mix together eggs, milk, water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon butter, and cognac.
  • Filling: beat pudding mix, instant coffee and whipping cream together with an electric mixer until the mixture is thick.
  • Sauce: in a small saucepan, melt the chocolate, butter, evaporated milk, and confectioners' sugar together until the mixture is a little thick.
  • Crepes: heat a small skillet (or crepe pan) to a high temperature. Place a small amount of batter into the skillet and swirl it around until the batter covers the bottom of the pan. When the crepe is slightly browned flip the crepe over and let the other side brown for a few seconds. The first crepe will most likely not turn out well, but the rest will. Stack the crepes on top of each other to let tem cool before filling.
  • Spoon the filling into the center of each crepe and roll the crepe up around it. Spoon the sauce over the crepes and serve.

Time 30m

Yield 9 to 10 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large eggs
1 cup milk, at room temperature
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 12 cubes
1 cup strawberry jam
1 cup mascarpone, at room temperature
3/4 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread, such as Nutella

Steps:

  • For the crepes: Combine the eggs, milk, flour, cocoa powder, sugar and salt in a blender or bowl. Blend or whisk by hand until the mixture forms a smooth batter.
  • Preheat a 10-inch nonstick crepe pan or skillet over medium-low heat. Melt 1 cube of butter in the pan. Add 1/4 cup of batter and quickly tilt the pan to form an even coating of batter on the bottom of the pan. Cook until set, about 1 minute. Using a heat-resistant spatula, carefully loosen the sides and gently flip the crepe over. Cook for 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter and butter.
  • For the filling: Mix the jam and mascarpone in a small bowl until smooth.
