Maple Butter Cream Crepes Recipes

Steps:

• Beat confectioners' sugar, butter, and syrup together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Add cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, to sugar mixture and beat until frosting is thickened and desired consistency.

Steps:

• Make the crepes by melting the butter and allowing it to brown slightly. Set aside.
• In the same pot, warm the milk. Remove from heat.
• In a bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, and sugar. Mix in eggs.
• Gradually mix in butter and warm milk. Chill.
• On a nonstick skillet over medium heat, pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of crepe batter, and tip the pan to cover the entire bottom surface. Cook until bottom surface of crepe begins to brown, then flip.
• Cool crepe. Repeat until all of the crepe batter is used.
• Stack crepes on top of each other, with whipped cream between each layer. Once assembled, trim edges for a cleaner look, if desired.
• For the ganache, bring the heavy cream and sugar to a boil, and pour over chocolate and butter. Let cool.
• Spread over the crepe cake.
• Top with sifted powdered sugar (optional).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the frosting: Beat together the butter, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and maple syrup in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or use a hand mixer) until smooth and creamy.
• For the apple-bacon filling: Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until the fat renders out and the bacon becomes crispy. Scoop out the bacon and place on a paper-towel-lined plate. Add the apples to the bacon fat and cook over medium heat until the apples are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the maple syrup and cinnamon and cook until sticky and caramelized, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• For the crepe batter: Whisk together the cake mix, milk, egg and egg white in a large bowl until smooth. Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet and spray liberally with nonstick cooking spray. Ladle about 3 ounces of batter into the pan and cook over medium heat until the bottom starts to brown and the top of the crepe begins to bubble, 1 to 2 minutes. Work around the edge of the crepe with a rubber spatula to begin to release it from the pan. Gently flip the crepe over, spraying more nonstick spray as needed. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer. Remove the crepe and place on a serving dish. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• To assemble: Spread the filling generously over half of each crepe and top with a few tablespoons of bacon. Fold the tops of the crepe over and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Sprinkle additional bacon on top if desired.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients for the crepes in blender container in order given; blend for 1 minute.
• Scrape down sides of container with rubber spatula and blend for another 15 seconds or until smooth.
• Refrigerate batter for at least 1 hour; cook crepes on crepe griddle as per manufacturers suggestion using 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter per crepe or in traditional pan.
• For the maple cream cut the butter into cubes and allow to reach room temperature.
• Blend 2 cups of the butter with the maple syrup and extract; whip until light.
• Microwave serving plates until warm or place in prehated oven on low heat to warm.
• Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of butter and set aside.
• Spread cooked, warm crepes with the whipped butter mixture and quickly roll crepes up, drizzle lightly with melted butter.
• In desired sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve any left over whipped butter on the side.
• Please note that the prep time includes the time needed to chill the crepe batter.
