Valentine's Day – Crepes for Dessert

Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Oil for making crepes

Directions
1. In a blender, mix together the flour, eggs and milk. Then add in salt and butter; blend for another 20 seconds until completely combined.
2. Heat a lightly oiled crepe pan or sauté pan over medium high heat (I like to spread a light layer of oil with a paper towel with each crepe).
3. Pour a scoop the batter onto the heated pan.  About 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly and thin.
4. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Do in batches.

1 pint strawberries, sliced
1 tablespoon sugar
8 ounces semisweet chocolate (cut up into small chunks)
1/2 cup heavy cream

2. Take a medium size pot and fill 1/3 with water.  Bring to almost a boil then turn off burner.
3. Add a bowl that will sit in the pot but not touch the water on the pot.  Add in chocolate and cream.  Use a spoon to stir often until melted.
4. To assemble, Take crepe and add a tablespoon of strawberries on one side of the crepe then fold over.  Drizzle with chocolate sauce then sprinkle confectioners' sugar.

Cindy's Tip!
Let the batter rest in the blender for at least 20 minutes before you start making crepes!
