Instructions

Let’s roll up our sleeves and whip up these dreamy chocolate-filled crêpes:

Make the Crêpe Batter

In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, beat eggs with milk and melted butter. Gradually combine the wet and dry ingredients until you have a smooth, thin batter. Let it rest for 15–30 minutes.

Cook the Crêpes

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly butter it. Pour a small amount of batter into the pan, swirling to cover the surface thinly and evenly. Cook until edges lift and the bottom is lightly golden, about 1–2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter.

Prepare the Chocolate Filling

Warm the cream or milk gently on the stove (don’t boil). Pour over chopped chocolate in a bowl and let sit for a minute. Stir until smooth and glossy. Stir in butter if using.

Assemble the Crêpes

Spread a spoonful of the warm chocolate filling over each crêpe. Roll or fold them up gently into your favorite shape—rolls, triangles, or envelopes.

Serve

Serve immediately, maybe with a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh berries, or a drizzle of extra chocolate sauce.

How to Serve Handmade Chocolate-Filled Rolled Crêpes

Additional Tips

• Resting the Batter helps the flour absorb the liquids for tender crêpes.
• Non-Stick Pan is key for easy flipping and perfect crêpes.
• Keep Cooked Crêpes Warm by stacking them on a plate covered with foil or a clean towel.
• Chocolate Filling Variations: Add a pinch of cinnamon or orange zest for extra flavor.
• Make Ahead: Prepare crêpes and chocolate filling separately; assemble just before serving.
