These rich chocolate crepes are thin, soft, and lightly sweet, perfect for breakfast or dessert with your favorite fillings.

Ingredients

  • 360 ml milk (1 1/2 cups, whole or 2%)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 45 g butter (melted, 3 1/2 tbsp)
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 50 g white or brown sugar (1/4 cup)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 100 g flour (generous 3/4 cup)
  • 40 g cocoa powder (1/4 cup, Dutch cocoa preferred)

Instructions

  1. Add milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, sugar, and salt to a blender or tall jug.
  2. Add flour and cocoa powder, then blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Preheat a 10-inch non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly brush with butter.
  5. Stir the batter, then pour about 1/4 cup into the pan, swirling to coat evenly.
  6. Cook for 30–60 seconds until set or edges slightly crisp, then flip and cook 10–15 seconds more if desired.
  7. Remove and repeat with remaining batter, stirring between each crepe.
  8. Stack cooked crepes and serve with desired fillings.

Notes

  • The first crepe is usually a test and may not turn out perfect.
  • For softer crepes, cook briefly without browning.
  • For classic texture, allow edges to crisp slightly before flipping.
  • Letting the batter rest improves texture and consistency.
  • Serve with fruits, whipped cream, Nutella, or syrup.
