~Chocolate Cream Crepes~

IMG_0005

I received a recipe for Chocolate Cream Crepes from Eagle Brand recently and, being a chocolate lover, I knew that I had to give them a try!

Ingredients

  • 1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 (4-serving size) package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup heavy cream, whipped
  • 1 (4 1/2-ounce) package ready-to-use crepes (10 crepes)
  • Powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced or cut up fresh fruit, such as strawberries, peaches, nectarines and/or kiwi fruit
  • White chocolate curls

Instructions

  • BEAT sweetened condensed milk and water in large bowl with electric mixer. Beat in pudding mix and cocoa powder. Fold in whipped cream. Cover and chill 15 minutes.
  • PIPE or spoon a generous 1/3 cup filling into center of each crepe. Roll up each crepe. Place on serving plate. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • SPOON fruit over crepes. Garnish with white chocolate curls, if desired.

While my crepes may not be picture perfect like theirs is, I can tell  you that they are melt-in-your-mouth delectable!  The recipe called for store bought crepes (blech) but I used my own recipe.  You can find it here
