Preparation

For the cream filling: 

1. First, prepare the cream filling. Place the milk and vanilla extract in a pot over low heat.

2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks, sugar and corn flour until well mixed.

3. Add the egg yolk mixture to the milk and vanilla. Stir gently until it begins to thicken.

4. Let the filling cool in a container until it reaches room temperature, then store it in the fridge.

For the crepes:

1. Beat the eggs and add the flour, milk, Extra Virgin Olive Oil from EU and salt to taste.

2. Beat the batter until it is smooth and lump-free with an electric mixer. The batter can be used immediately, but it’s advisable to let it sit in the fridge for about half an hour.

3. Heat a splash of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from EU in a pan and pour in two tablespoons of batter. Move the pan around so that the batter coats the entire bottom. When one side is set, flip the crepe and cook the other side.

4. When one crepe is finished, spread a little bit of the cream filling onto it. When the second crepe is finished, place it on top of the first and spread a little bit of cream filling onto it. Repeat this process until the cake reaches whichever height you prefer.

5. Once your tower of crepes and cream is ready, it can be served as is or with an added topping as your taste.

For the toppings:

We suggest topping the cake with strawberry jam, but there are many other options, depending on the tastes of each couple.

If you have a sweet tooth, you can top your crepe cake with chocolate. All you have to do is melt a little bit of couverture chocolate and drizzle it over the cake.

Remember to place the cake in the fridge afterward so that the chocolate hardens.

Instead of strawberry jam, you can also use other flavors like blueberry, plum or orange, or even caramel syrup and whipped cream.
