Time 45m

Yield 1 cake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups milk, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
meyer lemon, curd mousse (Meyer Lemon Curd Mousse)
1/4 cup heavy cream, whipped
candied meyer lemon slice (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt.
  • Whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla.
  • Gradually pour milk mixture into flour mixture, and whisk until smooth.
  • Whisk in butter; pour mixture through a sieve to remove lumps.
  • Refrigerate at least 2 hours up to overnight, in an airtight container.
  • Lightly butter a crepe pan or skillet and heat over medium until it just smokes.
  • Remove from heat and add 2 tablespoons batter, swirl to cover bottom of pan.
  • Reduce heat to medium low, return pan to heat and cook until edges are golden and center is dry, about 30 seconds per side.
  • Slide crepe onto an overturned plate; repeat with remaining batter so that you wind up with about 15 crepes; let cool (crepes can be prepared 1 day before assembling cake).
  • To assemble: place 1 crepe on the serving plate, spread with 1/4 cup of the Meyer lemon curd mousse; continue layering finishing with a crepe.
  • Refrigerate about an hour.
  • Top with whipped cream and garnish with 3 to 4 candied lemon slices, if desired.
