STRAWBERRY CREPES
Dimming the lights and flambéing a dessert tableside makes an exciting end to a meal. If you are doing this for your grand finale at a dinner party, practice in the confines of the kitchen a couple of times first. If your flambé doesn't ignite you might be left blushing tableside. Overdo it on the rum and you will have rosy cheeks for sure.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375°F.
- In a medium bowl, toss the strawberries with the confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon of the rum. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the berries over the paper. Bake for 10 minutes or until the sugar begins to brown and the berries are soft.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet set over medium heat, melt half of the butter. Add the granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of the rum and stir until combined. One by one, dip each crepe in the butter, making sure to coat both sides. Fold each crepe in quarters while still in the skillet. Arrange the crepes around the outside of the pan. Continue adding more crepes and the remaining butter as necessary. When all 12 crepes have been coated and folded, drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon rum over the crepes and ignite (be careful). When the flames have subsided, serve while still warm and top with the warm roasted strawberries.

Steps:
- Fold crepes in quarters. Heat in 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high, flipping once, until warm and crisp, 5 minutes; divide between 2 plates.
- Return skillet to heat; melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in packed light-brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of kosher salt; cook, swirling pan, until darkened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add halved strawberries; cook until tender, 2 minutes. Remove from heat; add silver rum.
- To flambe, return skillet to medium-high heat. If using a gas burner, carefully tilt pan away from you to ignite; if using an electric burner, use a lit long match held just above the sauce. When flame subsides (5 to 10 seconds), spoon strawberries over crepes. Return skillet to medium-high heat and reduce sauce until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes; pour over crepes. Whisk heavy cream until thickened slightly. Drizzle over crepes; serve.
