1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate
3 heaping tablespoons sugar
4 yolks
6 tablespoons cream, plus 1 1/2 cups cream, whipped
4 eggs
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons sugar
3/4 cup flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups cream
2 ounces butter
1/4 cup sugar
Pinch salt
1/4 vanilla bean
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 drops mint extract
1 pint raspberries
White chocolate shavings (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • For the mousse filling, melt the chocolate to 104 to 113 degrees F.
  • In another bowl combine sugar, yolks, and 6 tablespoons cream, and whisk well over simmering water to cooking to thicken, making a sabayon. Whisk half the whipped cream into the chocolate, then fold in the sabayon. Add remaining whipped cream and fold in, then chill, until ready to use.
  • For the crepe batter, whisk the eggs well then add the milk and whisk. Whisk in remaining ingredients. Let sit 20 minutes then strain.
  • For the bisque, put all the ingredients in a pot except the extract and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and whisk well to incorporate the chocolate then add the extract. Chill over night if making ahead of time. When ready to serve, warm the bisque through.
  • Ladle small amounts (1 to 2 ounces) of crepe batter into buttered crepe pan and cook on both sides. Repeat until all the batter is used.
  • Let the crepes cool before filling. To fill, place a quenelle of chocolate mousse in each crepe and fold it over to enclose the mousse. Serve 2 filled crepes per person. Spoon some chocolate mint bisque over and around the crepes. Sprinkle with raspberries and white chocolate shavings.

Categories     dessert

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
Four 8-inch wheat tortillas, room temperature
1/2 stick salted butter
1 1/3 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup finely chopped hazelnuts, or pistachios, or pecans
Sliced bananas, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Divide the chocolate hazelnut spread among the tortillas and spread evenly over half of the surface of each.
  • On a griddle or in a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter until bubbly. Add 1 or 2 of the tortillas, spread-side up, to the griddle. Spread 1/3 cup marshmallows in an even, single layer over the chocolate spread on each tortilla. Cook until the tortillas bubble in the pan and turn light golden brown on the bottom.
  • Using a spatula, quickly fold the uncovered half of the tortilla over the marshmallows, making a half-circle. Press on the top of the tortillas gently to seal. When the marshmallows are slightly melted and spongy, flip the crepe and let stand in the pan until the underside is just hot; do not overcook.
  • Transfer the crepes to a cutting board and let stand for 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining butter, tortillas, and marshmallows.
  • To serve, put the chopped hazelnuts on a plate. Cut the crepes in half crosswise, and then quickly press the cut side and round edges into the nuts to adhere. Sprinkle additional nuts over the top and serve immediately garnished with banana slices, if desired.
