Ingredients
Serves 10
Filling:
3 packets of Marcel’s Double Love Sweet Crepes or Ooh La La Gluten Free Crepes
1 cup lemon curd
200g mascarpone
¾ cup cream
2 tablespoons icing sugar
2 tablespoons sugar
Toppings:
Extra whipped cream
Fresh strawberries
50g grated chocolate / crumbled Flake bar
100g dark chocolate, melted
Method
In a large bowl, beat all the ingredients for the filling until it’s light and fluffy. Heat crepes stacked on a plate (in three lots) for one minute in the microwave and then allow to cool until they’re only just warm. Leave in fridge until ready for use.
You won’t be able to move the crepe cake once it’s completed, so assemble it on the plate you wish to serve it on! To assemble, start with a crepe laid flat on your cake serving plate. Top crepe with a heaped dessert spoon of the mascarpone mixture, spreading it right out to the edges. Top with another crepe, then repeat until you’ve used all of your mixture. Cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for 3 – 4 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, top your cake with whipped cream, sliced fresh strawberries and grated chocolate or crumbled flake bar. Drizzle it with the melted dark chocolate just before serving.
