  • Make-ahead friendly – Prepare the layers in advance.
  • Unique texture – A delightful combination of soft crepes and creamy cheese.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for the filling)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh fruit or chocolate sauce (for serving, optional)

How to Make Layered Sweet Crepe Cake

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until smooth. Stir in the melted butter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the shredded mozzarella, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
  4. Once all crepes are cooked and cooled, spread a thin layer of the cheese filling on top of each crepe, stacking them as you go. Finish with a crepe on top without filling.
  5. Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  6. Before serving, dust the top with additional powdered sugar and drizzle with chocolate sauce or serve with fresh fruit if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure the batter is smooth and well-mixed to prevent lumps in your crepes.
  • Resting the batter helps create tender crepes.
  • Use a non-stick skillet for easy flipping.
  • Adjust the filling ingredients to your taste; consider adding spices or citrus zest for extra flavor.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute the mozzarella with ricotta or goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • Add cocoa powder to the batter for chocolate crepes.
  • Mix in fresh herbs like basil or chives into the cheese filling for a savory twist.

What to Serve With It

  • Fresh berries or seasonal fruit for a refreshing contrast.
  • A drizzle of chocolate sauce or caramel for added sweetness.
  • A dollop of whipped cream to enhance the creaminess.
  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent touch.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days. The crepe cake is best served chilled but can also be enjoyed at room temperature. Reheat individual slices in the microwave for 15-20 seconds if desired.
