Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 1.5 cups 1% milk
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • Butter flavored spray (for cooking)
  • 24 medium strawberries (sliced, 2 in each crepe)
  • 1.5 cups fat-free cool whip
  • 3/4 cup chocolate syrup (to serve)

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Non-stick skillet or crepe pan
  • Ladle or measuring cup
  • Spatula
  • Plate

Method
 

Directions: Chocolate Crepes with Strawberries
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Whisk until well blended. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg whites, whole egg, and oil. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. Let it rest for about 15-30 minutes; this will help create a more tender crepe.
  2. Spray a non-stick skillet with butter flavored spray and heat it over medium heat. You want the skillet to be hot but not smoking.
  3. Using a ladle, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of the skillet. Quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is set. Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
  4. Once all your crepes are cooked, take one and place it on a plate. Add a spoonful of sliced strawberries and a dollop of cool whip down the center. Fold the crepe over to enclose the filling. Repeat this process with the remaining crepes.
  5. To finish off these Chocolate Crepes with Strawberries, drizzle chocolate syrup over the top. You can also add extra strawberries and cool whip for decoration. Serve immediately and enjoy every bite!

Notes

  • For a healthier option, substitute whole wheat flour or almond milk.
  • Feel free to use other fruits like bananas or blueberries for the filling.
  • The batter can be prepared a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
