Complete your favourite meal with this sweet treat and a fresh brewed espresso!
Ingredients:
Crepes:
- 75g plain flour
- 1 tbs sugar
- ˝ tsp salt
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 150 ml milk
- 2 tbs butter or margarine
Filling and Topping:
- 2 tbs caster sugar
- 2 tbs amaretto
- 300ml thickened cream
- Amaretti biscuits
Sauce:
- 250 ml apricot jam
- 4 tbs amaretto

Method:
- Prepare apricot sauce by heating jam, amaretto and water in a small saucepan until well combined.
- Make crepes by sifting together flour, sugar & salt.
- Combine beaten eggs, milk and butter or margarine and gradually add to dry ingredients until well blended. The mixture should be smooth and easy to pour.
- Heat a large heavy frying pan and grease lightly. Add two tablespoons of batter to the pan and swirl to thinly cover the surface, turning after a minute or when golden brown. Stack on a warming plate while repeating process to make 12 crepes.
- Make filling by whipping cream with caster sugar, then folding through amaretto. Then just prior to serving, fold through coarsely crushed Amaretti biscuits.
- Spread a couple of spoonfuls of the amaretto cream mixture on one half of each crepe, then fold in half and then spread a further spoonful on one side of the folded crepe before folding over again. Ie: Each crepe should be folded in quarters with the amaretto cream mixture sandwiched in between the layers.
