Chocolate-Cherry Crepes

"I fixed this treat for a women's group, our Valentine's Day celebration. We had a buffet style meal, so I cooked the crepes and served them in a 9x13 casserole dish. I served one and demonstrated how to add the cream and drizzle the chocolate syrup, so everyone could treat themselves. If you can make pancakes, you can make this recipe."

directions

  • Cooking aids: 8-inch crepe pan or coated skillet with sauce-pan lid, small sauce pan, medium bowl, plastic spatula, wax paper.
  • For the Crepes and Filling: Whisk together eggs, cocoa, flour, sugar, butter and salt. Whisk in milk. Stir until mixture is smooth. Cover; chill for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat skillet until drops of water spatter.
  • While cooking crepes be sure to spray Pam each time so they slide out. Crepes are fragile until cool.
  • In sauce pan, melt chocolate and cream over low heat, stirring constantly about five minutes.
  • Add pie filling, stir and keep warm as you cook the crepes.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan; immediately swirl the pan so batter completely covers the bottom.
  • Cover; cook crepe until center is set, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Loosen edges of crepe; slide crepe from pan onto wax paper. If it sticks, cook a little longer.
  • Assembly: Spread the filling into the center of a crepe.
  • Fold two sides of the crepe over the filling (like a burrito).
  • Repeat with remaining crepes.
  • Serve on dessert plate with topping and chocolate syrup.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I live in Lampasas Texas, a small town outside of Austin, with my two beautiful children; Chance (4 years-old) and Tara (7 years old) and loving husband, Craig. I am a full-time mother and wife. I volunteer at the school, library, and church, and am a member of Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS) and a Womens Group. My hobby is making cards and stationery--stamping and scrapbooking. I know nothing about house keeping or cooking. Needless to say my children and husband are very patient, so are my friends. And no I'm not blond. <br /><br />Before children, I was a computer teacher/technical support person for a large school district. Therefore, I use my talents whenever needed.</p>
