Chocolate Crepes

These delicate, thin crepes are infused with rich cocoa, offering a delightful twist on the classic French treat. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, they can be filled with whipped cream, fresh berries, or your favorite spread.

Ingredients:

• 2 large 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 (optional)

• 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

• 1¼ cups nonfat evaporated milk

• 2½ cups confectioners' sugar
  
  

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, mix together eggs, milk, water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon butter, and cognac.

2. Beat pudding mix, instant coffee, and whipping cream together with an electric mixer until thick.

3. In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate, butter, evaporated milk, and confectioners' sugar together until slightly thickened.

4. Heat a small skillet or crepe pan to high heat. Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, swirling to cover the bottom evenly. When the crepe is lightly browned, flip and cook the other side for a few seconds. Repeat for remaining batter. Stack crepes and let cool before filling.
