Chocolate Crepes



Now, I'm really on a roll here. Went looking for different fillings for those crepes, and found a Chocolate Crepe Batter Recipe. Filled with Irish Cream Chocolate Pudding, but I don't use alcohol in my kitchen, so the filling won't be posted here. However the crepe will. Original recipe is on World of Crepes.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 oz. of semisweet chocolate (morsels or bar chocolate)
  • 1 cup of milk
  • ½ cup of half and half
  • 2 tbsp of cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp of granulated sugar
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs


    • Pour milk into small sauce pan and heat gently. Combine chocolate with milk. If using bar chocolate, break into pieces before combining. Stir gently until chocolate is completely melted.

    Combine chocolate and milk mixture and remaining ingredients into blender and process until smooth. Important: Refrigerate the batter for at least 30 minutes. This gives the batter the opportunity to rest and fully come together.

    I can hardly wait to get started tomorrow! I wonder if my husband picked up ice cream today when he went grocery shopping. I have a wonderful husband. He shares the work in maintaining our house and home. He cooks, he cleans, he tinkers around the house and he does the grocery shopping. God showed me His favor when He brought him into my life.

    Well, enough of that mushy stuff. Enjoy.

    Cassoulet

    It's been quite awhile since I last put together a batch of Cassoulet. So much so that I have forgotten it was an all day thing, even using the quick soak method for dried beans. While they are getting cool enough to place in the fridge, I will post the recipe here. As with the previous post regarding Bean Prep, this recipe also comes from the Northarvest. As will the next one. That's because, of the five recipes listed in it, these two are the only ones I ever really enjoyed. CASSOULET Ingredients: 1 Pound Navy Beans (or your own combination of beans equal to one pound) 1/2 Tablespoon Chicken Bouillon Powder 5 Cups Water 4-5 Slices Bacon, diced 1 Medium Onion, diced 2 Carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces 1 Bay leaf 1 Tablespoon Parsley 1 Tablespoon Celery Leaves or seeds 1 Teaspoon Salt 1/8 Teaspoon Black Pepper (either ground or fresh grind) 1 Pound Polish (or Italian or Chicken Sausage)  1 1/2 Pounds Ham Directions: Soak beans. Drain beans; discard soak water...
