Ingredients

- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup raspberry sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
How to Make Layered Raspberry Crepe Cake
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until smooth. Stir in the melted butter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling to evenly coat the bottom.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift. Flip and cook for an additional 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- To assemble, place one crepe on a serving plate. Spread a layer of raspberry sauce over the crepe, followed by a layer of whipped cream and a few fresh raspberries.
- Repeat the layering process with the remaining crepes, raspberry sauce, whipped cream, and raspberries, finishing with a layer of whipped cream on top.
- Refrigerate the assembled cake for at least 1 hour to set before serving. Garnish with fresh mint leaves before slicing.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the skillet is adequately heated before cooking the crepes to avoid sticking.
- Use a thin spatula to flip the crepes gently.
- Allow the cake to chill for at least an hour; this helps the layers meld beautifully.
- You can make the crepes a day ahead and store them in the refrigerator, separated by parchment paper.
Easy Variations
- Substitute raspberries with strawberries or blueberries for a different flavor.
- Add a layer of lemon curd for a zesty twist.
- For a richer flavor, infuse the crepe batter with vanilla extract or almond extract.
What to Serve With It
- A dollop of additional whipped cream on the side
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream
- A light dusting of powdered sugar
- Fresh fruit salad
- A cup of herbal tea or coffee
