Equipment

  • Nonstick frying pan (or two if possible)
  • Whisk or hand blender
  • Spatula for flipping crepes
  • Mixing bowl
  • Piping bag or spoon for spreading cream

Ingredients

  • 50 g butter
  • 380 g wheat flour Type 405 (or all-purpose flour)
  • 80 g sugar
  • 2 pinches salt
  • 800 ml milk
  • 6 medium eggs
  • some oil for frying
  • 500 g mascarpone
  • 200 g cream cheese
  • 150 g nut nougat cream
  • 80 g powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tsp instant espresso powder (or 4 tbsp cold, strong espresso)
  • 200 g cream
  • to taste Cocoa powder for sprinkling
  • optional Chocolate decoration for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
  • Pour in half of the milk and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the remaining milk, melted butter, and eggs, then mix until the batter is silky.
  • Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick pan (about 20cm wide).
  • Ladle about 4-5 tablespoons of batter into the pan and swirl to coat the bottom evenly.
  • Cook each crepe for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Place each cooked crepe on a plate and repeat until all batter is used (should yield about 16-18 crepes).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone, cream cheese, nut nougat cream, powdered sugar, and espresso powder.
  • Whip the cream separately until soft peaks form and fold it into the mascarpone mixture.
  • Spread a generous layer of cream onto each crepe, stacking them one by one.
  • Finish with a dusting of cocoa powder and optional chocolate decorations.
  • Chill the assembled cake in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

Chill the assembled cake for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Store the assembled cake in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze individual slices wrapped in parchment paper. For a dairy-free option, substitute almond or oat milk and use a dairy-free cream. Try different fillings like Nutella or fruits for a twist!
