Ingredients
For the Crepes
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoons melted butter
- 3/4 cup whole milk
For the strawberry sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup strawberries, sliced
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup rum
For the chocolate sauce
- 100g dark Ghirardelli chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- For the crepes: in a medium bowl, beat the eggs with sugar, salt, and vanilla.
- Add flour to the mixture and whisk until really smooth.
- Whisk in the melted butter.
- Slowly add the milk while still whisking. Try not to add too much air to the mixture. Add more milk as needed.
- Bake the crepes on a flat, cast iron skillet with some butter, just until they start turning golden brown. Fold over twice into quarters and set aside on a warming plate or in the warm oven. Should yield 4 crepes.
- Put the chocolate chips in a small bowl.
- In a small sauce pan, heat up the cream, butter, and vanilla. Pour it over the chocolate chips and let it rest for at least 10 min.
- Meanwhile, prepare the strawberry sauce. Melt the butter in a large sauce pan and add the sliced strawberries. Cook over medium heat until softened.
- Stir in the sugar and keep cooking until foamy. Increase the heat, add the rum, let it warm up and light it with a match.
- When flames are gone, reduce the heat to low and add the crepes (still folded in quarters). Cover the crepes in the strawberry sauce.
- While crepes are soaking in the strawberry sauce, whisk the chocolate sauce until smooth.
- Place 2 crepes on each plate, add strawberry sauce, and decorate with chocolate sauce.
