Homemade Chocolate Crepes are an easy but impressive recipe for brunch or dessert! They are perfect with strawberries, bananas, or other fresh fruits and homemade whipped cream. They are easy to make ahead and reheat later!
The batter for these chocolate crepes is made right in the blender, and then you can pour it right out onto your hot pan. There's little mess and even the kids can help prepare them!
If you have leftover crepes, they reheat perfectly the next day and they're great cold as well! You can use them to make a crepe cake, or my kids love to have them for lunch rolled up with peanut butter and banana.
To make perfect crepes, be sure that your pan is very hot, and pour just enough batter on the pan that it will coat the bottom completely before it sets. You'll need to tilt the pan quickly but carefully to distribute the batter, and the first few crepes might not be your best looking, but they will still taste incredible!
