CREPE INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup warm water

1 cup whole milk

4 large eggs at room temperature

4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

1 cup all purpose unbleached flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

FROSTING INGREDIENTS:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temp

12 ounces sweetened condensed milk

8 ounces softened cream cheese

2 teaspoons good vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS TO MAKE CREPES:

In the bowl of a blender, add crepe ingredients in the order they are listed: 1/2 cup warm water, 1 cup milk, 4 eggs, 4 Tbsp melted butter, 1 cup flour, 2 Tbsp sugar and a pinch of salt. Blend until well combined, scraping down the blender with spatula if needed.

If you don’t have a crepe pan, just heat a medium (9-inch) non-stick pan over medium heat.  Add a small pat of butter and spread it around with spatula to lightly coat. Once butter is hot, add about 3 tablespoons of the batter, or enough to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, swirling the skillet as you add the batter to evenly coat the bottom of pan. Sauté about 30 seconds per side or until lightly golden then flip using a thin spatula and sauté another 30 seconds or until second side is golden. Flip crepe out onto a clean surface such as a cutting board and let layers cool to room temp before stacking.

DIRECTIONS TO MAKE FROSTING:

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk, beat butter and condensed milk on high speed 7 min. It should look whipped and lightened in color.

Add 8 oz of softened cream cheese 1 Tbsp at a time while mixing on medium high speed. Continue beating for 3 minutes or until no longer lumpy. Add 2 tsp vanilla and whisk until well incorporated and smooth. 

DIRECTIONS TO ASSEMBLE CAKE:

Place first crepe layer onto serving platter and spread about 3 tablespoons of frosting between each crepe layer, totaling 15 layers of crepes and 15 layers of cream.

Refrigerate cake for at least 6 hours or until frosting has firmed up.  Its easier to slice after refrigeration and won’t fall apart. To serve, dust with powdered sugar and top with fresh berries. Enjoy!
