Chocolate crepes are a typical dessert of French cuisine, but loved all over the world. They are thin, delicate, and delicious, perfect to fill with chocolate cream and finish with a touch of powdered sugar and chopped hazelnuts. Ideal for a tasty breakfast or snack.
To prepare the crepes, in a bowl mix the eggs and yolk with the cocoa, sugar, flour, and cream, gradually adding the milk
Let the batter rest for 30 minutes
Meanwhile, prepare the filling: bring the milk with the vanilla bean to a boil, then let it cool
In a saucepan, beat 3 yolks with the sugar, add the sifted flour with the cocoa and milk; cook in a double boiler until you get a thick cream
Whip the egg whites until stiff, fold them into the cold cream and set aside
Then carefully mix the batter, pour a ladleful into a buttered non-stick pan to coat the bottom, let it set, then flip it to the other side and cook for a few more moments
Continue this way until all the batter is used up
Fill the crepes with the prepared cream, transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and heat them in a hot oven at 200 degrees for about 5 minutes
Sprinkle the crepes with powdered sugar and serve
You can add a handful of chopped hazelnuts to the cream
