How to Make Tiramisu Stuffed Crêpes
Prepare the batter. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes to thicken slightly.
Heat the pan. Preheat a non-stick skillet or crêpe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Cook the crêpes. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, swirling to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges lift and bottom is golden. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Stack on a plate as you cook the rest.
Whip the cream. In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
Mix the filling. In another bowl, blend the mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cooled espresso, and coffee liqueur (if using) until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully combined.
Stuff the crêpes. Take a crêpe, place a generous spoonful of the tiramisu filling in the center, and fold the crêpe over the filling.
Repeat and plate. Continue with the remaining crêpes until all are stuffed. Place finished crêpes on a serving plate.
Garnish beautifully. Dust with cocoa powder, and optionally add chocolate shavings and fresh berries.
Serve and savor! Present the delightful crêpes immediately.
Allow the batter to rest for at least 15 minutes for the best texture. Keep heat medium to avoid burning crêpes. Use freshly brewed espresso for the best flavor.
