Crepes with Nutella, Mascarpone and Bananas

By CruelK8E

Ingredients

• 8 crepes (recipe follows)
• 1 cup mascarpone cheese, room temperature
• 1 cup Nutella (or Trader Joe's Cocoa Haze)
• 1 or 2 bananas thinly sliced
• 1 cups chopped toasted hazelnuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Make the crepes (can be done a day ahead and refrigerated).

Combine the Nutella and mascarpone cheese. Reserve a little of the mixture for serving.
Combine the cocoa powder and powdered sugar and set aside.

Spread some of the Nutella mixture on 1/2 of a crepe. Top with a few slices of banana. Fold the crepe in half over the filling and then in half again to form a triangle. Continue with the rest of the crepes.

To serve, place 2 crepes on a plate. Top with a dollop of the reserved Nutella mixture and a slice of banana. Using a small sifter, sprinkle with the cocoa powder mixture. If using, sprinkle with the toasted hazelnuts.
