Ingredients

Scale

For the Crepes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for greasing the pan)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For Serving (Optional):

  • Fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries)
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Make the Batter:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
    • In a separate large bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. The batter should be smooth and slightly runny.
    • Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes to ensure tender crepes.
  • Cook the Crepes:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
    • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting it to spread the batter evenly into a thin circle.
    • Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the underside is set. Flip the crepe and cook for an additional 30-60 seconds.
    • Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes with parchment paper in between to prevent sticking.
  • Serve:
    • Fill the crepes with your choice of whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
    • Roll or fold the crepes and garnish with powdered sugar and additional toppings as desired.

Notes

  • Letting the batter rest is key to getting the crepes tender.
  • If you don’t have a crepe pan, a non-stick skillet works just fine.
