PEEPS® Chocolate Raspberry Crepes
Ingredients
                                        
  • 6 PEEPS® (Milk or Dark) Chocolate Covered Raspberry Flavored Marshmallow Hearts
  • 1 tsp raspberry flavored extract (may substitute ¼ cup raspberry jam)
  • 12 oz whipped topping
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  •               e5362371-4af2-4cb2-a277-aaf01fabea31
                                        
  1. To make filling, mix together raspberry flavored extract (or raspberry jam) and the whipped topping. Cut PEEPS® Marshmallow Hearts into ¼” pieces and fold into the whipped topping. Set aside or refrigerate until crepes are ready to fill.
  2. To make crepes, whisk the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Gradually add in the milk and water. Sift in flour, stirring to combine. Add the salt, butter, granulated sugar and ¼ cup of powdered sugar. Beat until smooth.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately ¼ cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan in a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
  4. Cook each crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side.
  5. As each crepe is done, place it on a plate. Scoop about ½ cup of filling into crepe and roll.
  6. Top each with a small amount of powdered sugar and serve immediately.

Makes:4 crepes
