Ingredients
- Crepes
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup lukewarm water
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
- 1/8 tsp salt

- Hot Fudge Sauce
- from How Sweet It Is
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup cocoa
- 2 tablespoons flour
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup boiling water or scalding milk
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Preparation
Step 1
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 30 minutes, or refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Heat a nonstick pan over medium high heat. (If not using a nonstick pan, add about 1/2 tsp of butter to the pan). Lift the pan off the heat and slowly pour in enough batter to cover the entire bottom with a very thin coating (about 1/4 cup). Quickly tilt and rotate the pan, then return to the heat and cook until the crepe bubbles and the bottom is lightly browned, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Turn the crepes with a spatula or with your fingers. Return the pan to heat and cook the second side until browned, but not evenly. Slide the crepe onto a wax paper-covered plate.
Spread 3-4 Tbsp of filling in the center of the pale side of each crepe, leaving a 1-inch border all around, then roll up the crepes

*I liked this best after I kept it in the refrigerator and then re-heated it. It was nice and thick and fudgy!
