Crepe Cake
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsps Granulated Sugar
- 2 cups Milk
- 2 large Eggs lightly beaten
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence
- 2 tbsps Margarine or Butter melted
For the frosting:
- 345g Unsalted Butter, at room temperature
- 100g Cocoa Powder
- 100g Milk Chocolate, melted
- Pinch of salt
- 2 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Method
- Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in remaining ingredients.
- Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth.
- Lightly butter 6-8 inch pan, heat over medium heat until bubbly.
- Pour a 1\4 cup of the batter into the pan and rotate so a thin film of batter coats the pan.
- Flip the crepe once it sets for it to cook on the other side.
- Once the crepe is well cooked, put it on a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the crepes are cooked.
Make the frosting:
- Put the milk chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth; let cool.
- Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the melted milk chocolate until combined.
- Gradually beat in the confectioners’ sugar until smooth and fluffy; beat in the vanilla.
- Place the cream in a piping bag with a medium size nozzle. Apply cream onto crepes as you layer.
