Smooth, Crispy, Fluffy Mille Crepes
- 100 grams Cake flour
- 1/4 teasponn Baking powder
- 2 Eggs
- 35 grams Granulated sugar
- 250 ml Milk (warmed to room temperature)
- 30 grams Melted butter
- 1 dash Vanilla oil or extract
- 1 Egg yolk
- 25 grams Granulated sugar
- 5 grams each Cake flour, cornstarch
- 120 ml Milk
- 1 dash Vanilla extract
- 190 ml Heavy cream
- 20 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 Your desired fruits, powdered sugar
- Make the crepe dough.
- Combine and sift the materials.
- Add the egg to a bowl and beat, then add the sugar and mix.
- But don't whip it.
- Add the ingredients and mix.
- While it's still not completely mixed together add 1/3 of the milk and mix to avoid clumping.
- Add the rest and mix together.
- While mixing add the melted butter a bit at a time, then add the vanilla, mix, and strain.
- Cover with a wrap and let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
- You want the flavor to set in, no powder to be remaining, and the dough to stretch without breaking.
- Make the cream.
- Heat the milk to just before boiling.
- Add the egg yolks to a bowl and add the sugar while mixing.
- Mix until the mixture becomes white.
- Add the sifted ingredients and mix.
- While mixing add the milk from step 5 a little at a time and mix while straining.
- Return to the pot and use a wooden spoon, etc to mix while heating on medium heat.
- Once the middle starts to bubble pour onto a tray, etc covered in wrap, and use ice to quickly cool it.
- If you're worried about it burning cook on low heat, or remove from the heat, mix well, then return to the heat and repeat.
- You can also use a whisk.
- Take your rested dough and use a ladle to lightly mix.
- Heat some oil in a frying pan, but wipe away any excess.
- Pour 3/4ths of the ladle into the frying pan, and tilt it to extend it out thinly.
- Once the edges have browned place the frying pan on top of a damp cloth and use a palette knife or your fingers to carefully turn it over and cook.
- Flip on to an upside down bowl to let cool.
- Use a bowl instead of cutting boards, as they release the heat more quickly.
- Choose the crepe that you baked most beautifully.
- This will be the one you'll use as the top layer.
- Add sugar to the heavy cream and whip until soft peaks form.
- Put the cooled custard into a separate bowl, mix well until smooth, then add vanilla and continue to mix.
- Add a little bit of step 15 to step 16 and mix.
- Then add the rest of step 15 and mix lightly until soft.
- Place the crepe dough on a flat plate covered in wrap, or on top of a cutting board.
- Apply a thin layer of cream.
- Place another piece of dough on top and repeat the process.
- Continue doing this.
- Cover with wrap and cool, then cut with a warm knife.
- Cooling it makes it easier to cut and the cut opening stays nice.
- If you like decorate with powdered sugar and heavy cream.
- Wrap to preserve.
- When making with thinly-cut fruits, don't add the fruit to the uppermost layer.
- This is to keep the fruits from being visible from the top.
- This time I thinly cut some strawberries, dried with paper towels, and placed on top of the cream.
- You don't have to wrap up the fruit in the crepe.
- You can also use- "Delicious the Next Day!
- Simple & Smooth Crepe Dough" in double amounts.
- I recommend this for those who like chewy textures.
