Mille Crepe Cake instructions
- Microwave milk and butter until butter is melted. Set aside to cool; if milk is too hot it will curdle the eggs, but we don't want cold milk either..
- Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a big bowl, and whisk in the eggs until the mixture is smooth..
- Add in the milk when it is warm (not hot) to touch. Whisk until incorporated. The batter should end up very watery..
- Cover and chill for at least two hours. This will make the crepes softer and less chewy..
- Heat a flat-bottomed skillet or saucepan on low heat..
- Depending on the size of the skillet, use a ladle to pour in the batter. I used a 24 inch skillet and measured 1/4 cup batter for each crepe. When the skillet is hot enough, remove it from heat and pour in batter, turning the skillet gently around as you pour to distribute the batter evenly..
- Use a spatula to loosen the sides of the crepes once they solidify. With amazing heatproof fingers (if unavailable, chopsticks work too), carefully lift the crepe and flip it, taking care not to tear it. The crepe is done when the edges brown slightly..
- Cool the crepe and repeat, making sure the crepes aren't too thick, but not too thin that it cannot be flipped without tearing..
- After all the crepes are done, whip the cream with sugar..
- Layer the crepes and cream. Try and have the cream thicker at the sides or the cake will have a weird domed shape, but if the shape doesn't matter to you then just do whatever you like..
- Chill the cake again at the end for at least 2 more hours before serving to let the whipped cream set..
