Ingredients

  • For the Crepes:
  • - 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • - 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • - 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • - 3 large eggs
  • - 1 1/4 cups milk
  • - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Filling:
  • - 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • - 1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
  • - 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • For the Topping:
  • - 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • - Powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until smooth.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling it around to coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges are set and the bottom is lightly browned. Flip and cook for another 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  6. In a small saucepan, heat the chocolate hazelnut spread and heavy cream over low heat until melted and smooth. Stir in the sliced bananas.
  7. Place a crepe on a flat surface and spoon a generous amount of the chocolate banana filling onto one half. Fold the other half over to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
  8. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
  9. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the filled crepes.
  10. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
