Categories     dessert

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.
  • Spread each crepe with 3 tablespoons of the jam mixture leaving a 1/2-inch border. Fold the two opposite ends of each crepe inward and roll into a tube shape. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Arrange the crepes on a platter.
  • Heat the chocolate-hazelnut spread over low heat in a small saucepan, stirring constantly, until warm. Spoon over the crepes and serve.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups whole milk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon dark rum
Grapeseed oil spray, for the pan
Hot Chocolate Sauce, recipe follows
4 1/2 ounces chopped dark chocolate
2 1/2 cups water
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups cocoa powder
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt, and set aside. In a small saucepan, warm the milk over low heat. Add the warmed milk and butter to the flour mixture, followed by the eggs and the rum. Use an immersion blender to mix the batter until thoroughly combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or in the refrigerator overnight.
  • To make the crepes, spray an 8-inch saute pan with grapeseed oil spray, wipe it clean, and turn the heat to high. (You'll know the pan is ready when it just begins to smoke.) Using a 2-ounce ladle, ladle out crepe batter into the hot pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter into an even circle. After 45 seconds, when the top is dry, flip the crepe over and cook on the other side for 20 seconds, until it just starts to brown at the edges. Fold the crepe in half and transfer it to a sheet pan lined with foil. Repeat this process with the remaining crepe batter.
  • Place one crepe on a plate and top with Hot Chocolate Sauce. Fold the sides over and repeat with another crepe on the same plate (you will have two crepes for each serving.) Repeat with the remaining crepes and serve.
  • Place the chocolate in a large bowl and set aside. Combine the water, sugar, cocoa powder, and cream in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate, setting the saucepan aside, and whisk until smooth. Pour the chocolate sauce into a sieve set over the reserved saucepan and keep warm until ready to use.

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.
