Chocolate Raspberry Crepes Recipe

Crepes are delicate, thin pancakes perfect for breakfast or dessert. This simple recipe yields tender crepes topped with rich chocolate frosting and fresh raspberries for a delightful treat.

A white plate holds two folded pale yellow crepes placed slightly overlapping near the center, each with soft, thin texture and light brown spots on top. On the crepes' center and around their edges are thin drizzles of glossy dark brown chocolate sauce. Fresh fruits, including round yellow banana slices and bright red raspberries, are scattered over the crepes and on the plate below. To the right of the plate, shiny silver fork and knife rest side by side. To the left of the plate, there is a small white cup filled with more chocolate sauce. The scene is set on a white marbled surface with soft natural light. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Tips & Variations

  • For a fluffier texture, let the batter rest in the fridge for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Substitute fresh berries with sliced bananas or strawberries for different fruit toppings.
  • Use melted dark chocolate or Nutella instead of chocolate frosting for variation.
  • If batter is too thick, add a little more milk to reach a thin, pourable consistency.

Storage

Store leftover crepes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat by warming gently in a pan or microwave until heated through. Fresh toppings are best added just before serving.

FAQs

Can I make crepes ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the batter and cook the crepes in advance. Store cooked crepes refrigerated and reheat before serving.

What if I don’t have caster sugar?

You can use granulated sugar as a substitute, though caster sugar dissolves more easily for a smoother batter.
