Nutella & Oreo Mille Crêpe Cake (CREPES) | Recipe



What's better than Nutella and Oreos? A Nutella and Oreo Crepe Cake of course! This is such an amazing dessert and will impress anyone. The sweet Nutella cream compliments the soft crepes really well which contrasts the crunchy oreo cookies scattered throughout the cake. You have to try this!

Nutella and Oreo Crepe Cake Recipe                                                                 Recipe by iSaamuel   INGREDIENTS;
Crepes
1 egg,
1 tablespoon of melted, unsalted butter,
120ml of milk,
1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract,
65g of plain, all purpose flour, 
2 tablespoons of sugar

extra butter if your pan isn't non-stick

Nutella cream
320ml of heavy whipping cream,
1/2 cup of Nutella (chocolate hazelnut spread),

8 crushed Oreo (chocolate sandwich cookies),

extra whipped cream and Oreos to garnish
 

METHOD;
Crepes
1. Whisk together the egg, butter, milk and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
2. Sift in the flour and the sugar and whisk well until there are no lumps of flour remaining.
Pour the batter through a strainer if there are lumps.
3. Heat a 5 inch non-stick pan on low to medium heat. Use butter to coat the pan if it isn't non-stick.
4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter on to the pan and swirl immediately to form an even circle throughout the pan. If there are gaps where there is no batter, pour in a little bit more.
5. The crepe is ready to be flipped when cooked for about 45-60 seconds and the top appears dry and 'puffed up'.
6. Cook the other side for around 30 seconds or until well golden brown.
7. Stack crepes on top of each other and using a cake mould that is slightly smaller than the crepes (5 inches), cut the edges off the crepes so that all of them are the same size.
8. Let them cool completely and meanwhile, we'll make the Nutella cream.

Nutella cream
1. Whip up the cream to soft peaks on high speed for 3-5 minutes. Make sure you don't over-whip the cream or else it'll start to separate and there is no going back once that happens- you'll have to start again.
2. Add in the Nutella and whisk until just combined.
Personally, I find this cream sweet enough but if you don't feel free to add sugar to taste, or extra Nutella.

Assembly
1. Take a crepe and smear the cream on top. Sprinkle on the Oreos evenly.
2. Repeat this process while remembering the layers- crepe, Nutella and then Oreos.
3. One you have one crepe remaining, place it on top and smear the Nutella cream on top, but this time, there is no need to garnish with the Oreo crumbs. Instead, garnish with piped whipped cream and whole Oreo cookies.
4. Place the whole cake in the refrigerator and refrigerate for 6 hours till overnight before serving.
Enjoy.
