2.9.13 (Mon)

I'm not a fans of mille crepe cake but lately, some of my church friends have been baking mille crepe, and hubby saw, he asked if I want to try baking it too..well..being a good wife and also baking lover..I googled mille crepe recipe on youtube and found this video, which was quite straight forward and easy to follow. 

Ingredients

2 eggs, at room temperature

100g cake flour

2 tbsp caster sugar

2 tbsp melted butter

250ml fresh milk

1/2 tsp vanilla essence

**Make 8 layers of crepe

 

Fillings

200ml whipping cream

1 tbsp caster sugar

Nutella

 

Methods

1. Sift cake flour. Add sugar and eggs, mix well with a wire whisk.

 

2. Add half of the milk and melted butter and mix well.

 

3. Strain the batter to remove lumps.

 

4. Add the remaining milk and vanilla essence and mix well.

 

5. Cover with cling wrap and let it stand at room temperature for at least 30mins.

 

6. Using a 26cm pan, wipe the surface with cooking oil (I used butter). Heat at medium temperature, pour a laddle of crepe batter and spread the batter evenly.

 

7. Cooked the crepe until the edges begin to dry, flip over and cook the other side for 10 seconds. Make the rest of the crepe and leave to cool completely.

 

8. Mix whipping cream and sugar. Float the bottom of the bowl in ice water. Whisk till foam soft peak. (I chilled the cream in freezer for about 10mins, beat with electric mixer on medium speed)

 

9. Place one layer of crepe on plate. Spread the cream, place another layer of crepe. Spread nutella. Place another layer of crepe. Spread cream and repeat till finish the layers of crepe.

 

10. Cover with cling wrap and rest in the fridge for 1 hr.

 

11. Cut into half, use nutella as a glue, place the other half on top. Rest in the fridge till nutella hardens up, much easier to cut. Ready to serve.
