Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 3 Large eggs
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Almond extract
• 8 ounces Mascarpone cheese
• 0.5 cup Whipping cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
• 0.5 cup Espresso (strongly brewed and cooled)
• 0.5 cup Dark chocolate (shaved or finely chopped)
• 0.25 cup Sliced almonds (toasted)
• 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and almond extract until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to form a smooth batter. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter.

Step 5

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan, swirling to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining batter to make 10-12 crepes.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, whipping cream, and powdered sugar together until smooth and fluffy.

Step 7

Dip a pastry brush into the cooled espresso and lightly brush one side of each crepe.

Step 8

Spread a thin layer of the mascarpone mixture over the espresso-brushed side of the crepe. Sprinkle with a bit of dark chocolate and a few toasted almonds.

Step 9

Fold the crepe into quarters or roll it up, depending on your preference.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.

Step 11

To serve, dust the finished crepes with cocoa powder and garnish with additional shaved chocolate and sliced almonds.
