Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup bourbon
- 2 cups whipped cream
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, eggs, milk, cocoa powder, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a ladle of batter into the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom. Cook until the edges lift, then flip and cook for another minute.
- Repeat until all batter is used, stacking the crêpes on a plate.
- To assemble, layer crêpes with whipped cream and drizzle bourbon between layers.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- For a boozier flavor, increase the bourbon in the filling.
- Ensure the crêpes are completely cooled before assembly to prevent sogginess.
