Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups whole milk
• 2 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for cooking
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

How to Make Layered Chocolate Crepe Cake

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
2. In another bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the milk and melted butter.
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
5. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift, then carefully flip and cook for another minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
6. For the ganache, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until just simmering. Pour over the chopped chocolate in a bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
7. To assemble, place one crepe on a serving platter. Spread a thin layer of ganache over the crepe, followed by a layer of fresh berries. Repeat the process, layering crepes, ganache, and berries until all crepes are used.
8. Drizzle the remaining ganache over the top layer and garnish with additional berries. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
9. Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing to allow it to set.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure the crepe batter is smooth for the best texture.
• Let the crepes cool completely before stacking to prevent sogginess.
• Use a non-stick skillet for easier flipping and removal of crepes.
• Adjust the sweetness of the ganache with more or less sugar to taste.

Easy Variations

• Substitute the fresh berries with sliced bananas or cherries.
• Add a layer of whipped cream in between crepes for extra creaminess.
• Try flavored chocolate, such as dark or white chocolate, for a different twist.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast.
• A dollop of whipped cream for extra richness.
• A drizzle of caramel sauce for added sweetness.
• Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
