Directions

- Spread about 1 tablespoon of Nutella onto each crepe, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Place a few slices of banana on top of the Nutella.
- Roll up the crepe tightly, folding in the sides as you go.
- Repeat with the remaining crepes.
- In a chilled mixing bowl, add heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form.
