Tiramisu Crepes Recipe

Prep: 30 min. + chilling Cook: 5 min./batch

Yield: 22 Servings

30 5 35

Ingredients

4 eggs
3/4 cup 2% milk
1/4 cup club soda
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1/4 teaspoon salt
FILLING:
1 carton (8 ounces) Mascarpone cheese
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup coffee liqueur or strong brewed coffee
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Optional toppings: chocolate syrup, whipped cream and baking cocoa

Directions

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, milk, soda, butter, coffee and vanilla. Combine the flour, sugar, cocoa and salt; add to milk mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat; pour 2 tablespoons batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed. When cool, stack crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
For filling, in a large bowl, beat the cheeses and sugar until fluffy. Add liqueur and vanilla; beat until smooth. Spoon about 2 tablespoons filling down the center of each crepe; roll up. Top with chocolate syrup, whipped cream and cocoa if desired. Yield: 22 crepes.
