Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, melted and cooled or 1/4 cup salad salad oil
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup sweet butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup Grand Marnier
1/4 cup orange zest
1/2 cup sweet butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons shredded orange rind
2/3 cup orange juice
2 oranges, peeled and sectioned
1/2 cup Grand Marnier

Steps:

  • MAKE CREPES: In medium bowl, combine flour, melted butter, eggs, egg yolks, and 1/2 cup milk: beat with rotary beater until smooth. Beat in remaining milk until mixture is well blended.
  • Refrigerate, covered, at least 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make ORANGE BUTTER: In small bowl, with electric mixer at low speed, cream 3/4 cup sweet butter with 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Add 1/3 cup Grand Marnier and 1/4 cup orange peel; beat until well blended. Set aside.
  • MAKE ORANGE SAUCE: In large skillet, melt sweet butter. Stir in sugar, orange peel, and orange juice; cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until peel is ranslucent--about 20 minutes. Add orange sections and 1/2 cup Grand Marnier. Keep warm.
  • TO COOK CREPES: Slowly heat 8-inch skillet until a drop of water sizzles and rolls off. For each crepe, brush skillet lightly with butter. Pour in about 2 tablespoons batter, rotating pan quickly, to spread batter completely over bottom of skillet.
  • Coook until lightly browned--about 30 seconds; turn, and brown other side. Turn out onto wire rack.
  • Spread each crepe with Orange Butter, dividing evenly. Fold each in half, then in half again. When all are folded, place in Orange Sauce in chafing dish or skillet; cook over low heat until heated through.
  • TO SERVE: Gently heat 3 tablespoons Grand Marnier in small saucepan just until vapor rises. Ignite with match, and pour over crepes. Serve flaming. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
