CHOCOLATE CREPES

作者： 弄库一额

Enjoy these easy Chocolate Crepes for breakfast, brunch or dessert and turn any day into a special one. Fill them any way you like with whipped cream, fresh fruit, nutella, jam, cookie butter, or just simply dusted with powdered sugar! Our family adores crepes so much that I wrote up a big post on our favorite Crepes Recipe with a more detailed explanation of how to make crepes and crepe filling ideas. They are one of our favorite Saturday morning breakfast traditions, for no other reason than it’s a lazy Saturday and we can! Or sometimes I will make them for dessert on family night. At Christmas I dye them green and make Christmas tree crepes. No matter how we make them, crepes are always a hit! My first thought when it comes to chocolate is almost always to pair it with fruit (for example, this raspberry chocolate tart and these chocolate covered strawberries), so my crepes always, always, always have plenty of fresh strawberries and/or raspberries in them. CREPE FILLING IDEAS These are some of our favorite crepe filling combinations! Bananas and Nutella Strawberries and whipped cream Cookie butter and bananas Whipped cream cheese with powdered sugar and cherry pie filling (I’m thinking Black Forest crepes!) Raspberry jam and powdered sugar Sliced pears and caramel

CHOCOLATE CREPES的小贴士

TIPS FOR CHOCOLATE CREPES A nice, smooth batter will result in thinner, better crepes. It should be pourable and easy to swirl around the bottom of a hot crepe pan or skillet. Make sure your pan is nice and hot. Crepes should cook quickly, only about a minute on the first side and less than 30 seconds on the other side. Which is good since somebody has to stand by the stove flipping them and building that stack of crepes before everybody can eat! Don’t add too much batter to the pan. You want just enough chocolate crepe batter so that it covers the bottom of the pan completely before the bottom cooks. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto one side of a hot pan and swirl it, holding the pan up and letting gravity do it’s job to allow the thin batter to flow around the pan quickly before it cooks. No worries if the first few crepes are flops. It takes some time to figure out the technique and to get the pan to just the right temperature. But even ugly crepes are just as tasty! Use a crepe turner (a thin wooden spatula) to flip the crepes if you have one. Or a rubber spatula or butter knife will work as well. Like my chocolate pastry crust, there isn’t an intense hit of chocolate in these crepes. It’s subtle, but still noticeable and makes these deliciously different from the norm. If you want a bigger chocolate flavor, you will need to boost that by filling these with nutella or drizzling them with chocolate sauce.
