Ingredients

For the crêpes

  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp instant coffee optional
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 310 ml milk any type
  • 20 g unsalted butter melted and cooled to room temperature plus more to cook

For the whipped cream

  • 500 ml whipping cream
  • 5 tbsp icing sugar

For serving

  • Assorted berries
  • Icing sugar

Instructions

For the crêpes

  • Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl and make a hole in the center.
  • Add the wet ingredients at the center and whisk from the center, adding the dry ingredients little by little to prevent lumps from forming.
  • Let the dough rest for 30min in the fridge.
  • Place a bit of butter on a non-stick 25cm/10in diameter pan over medium heat and add about ⅔ ladle of the batter. It's easier if you place the batter to one side and spin the pan around to cover it completely.
  • When the edges become crispy, unstick a corner and flip it with your two hands carefully.

For the whipped cream

  • Whip up the cream with the icing sugar using an electric mixer. Stop when it looks like a soft cloud. If you go too far you could split it and make butter instead.

For the assembly

  • Make sure the crêpes are no longer hot. Spread the whipped cream over ¼ of the crêpe. On top of that, add the berries.
  • Fold it in 4 to form a triangle. Dust with icing sugar to finish and serve immediately.
