Crepe time for the Slow Scoopers.
The filling is whatever you like most. I am debating on ice cream or just my favorite Nutella.
I am feeling like I aught to make something frosty to go along.
Decisions~Decisions.

I didn't have a hard time deciding...Vietnamese Coffee Ice Cream.

Ooooh I was attracted to the heading. I love crepes! Will be looking forward to this.

Ugh, I gave Chris a choice on a flavor and he chose Blueberry yogurt, which is so not appealing to me. I think I'll make him that but make coffee for Becky and I .

Well, Kim I do know what you mean; I was leaning towards the coffee yoghurt, but David wants Raspberry ice cream. We're still in discussion. And I don't suppose the leftover Roquefort Honey is going to work.

I'm going to make the Turron ice cream. Should be good since all of the other flavors we've made with honey have been great. Just stopped at the store to buy pistachios, but I forgot to buy some good honey, so it's going to be the basic squeeze bear. Flavored with honey, candied orange rind, almonds, and pistachios, I'm hoping for another winner.

Kim, the Vietnamese Coffee Ice Cream is unbelievable! And on the plus side, you don't make it with eggs. Just coffee, condensed milk, and half&half.

Deborah-Glad to know the Vietnamese coffee ice cream is good. I looked up the recipe when you said that was what you were making, and it sounds good, and easy. I made mine up tonight before I flew out of town, and it's in the frige chilling. I have company coming over this weekend for dinner, so I thought I'd make a double batch, and I used 10 eggs!

I think we may take a break from ice cream with our crepes - I may end up making a filling with caramelized apples. We picked 30 lbs of apples last weekend and should get using them!

Jerry, my daughter called me this morning wanting a crash course by phone on how to can apples.
One of her employees gave her two bushels from the tree in his back yard.
I think I'm getting home canned apples for Christmas.

I am going to pass on this weeks recipe as we have a trade show to do all weekend.I am looking forward to seeing everyones comments and photos. Have fun!!

Hmmm, still deciding on a filling. Lots of good ideas here. I do like the caramelized apple idea!

Humn. Thinking about my grandmother's blintz filling.

Vietnamese coffee ice cream is in the freezer - yum!!

I picked up the last of the strawberries at the market. I've got the strawberry sourcream ice cream in the freezer now.

Just in time for breakfast!

Sandi-I can't wait to hear how the Strawberry Sourcream Ice Cream is. I've eyed that recipe a few times thinking how good it sounds. My Turron Ice Cream is now frozen. And let me tell you, it is good. It tasted very different after it had sat in the fridge for a day-the orange flower water flavor really mellowed and came through. I have a feeling this will be one that keeps getting better after being frozen for a few days.

I have to say that the fresh raspberry tastes fabulous; it's getting harder in the freezer as I type. But the weather has turned cool and drizzly (go figure from our 100+ earlier this week), and I am hoping the sun is shining tomorrow for crepes and chocolate sauce. This is definitely not an ice cream day.

I'm going to have to pass on the crepes. I have to leave early tomorrow to be at the Botanical Gardens in time to find a decent parking place.

This weekend is the Best of Missouri Market at the gardens.

200 food and natural products artisans all in one beautiful place with their great products.

It's one of the highlights of my year.

So, I'll post a picture of my Vietnamese Coffee tomorrow night. But no crepes.

The crepes were incredibly easy to make. The batter comes together nicely in the blender and after it rests in the fridge makes excellent crepes. I liked that I was done them all in about 15 minutes.

We ended up serving them with a filling of caramelized apples, calvados, and hazelnuts. I served them with a dollop of sweetened creme fraiche to which I added some saigon cinnamon.

Delicious!

We leaving early tomorrow to do some shopping in the States so I am posting my picture early.

Enjoy your crepes y'all!

Deborah, if you have 10 minutes tomorrow night (and then an hour to wait), make the crepes - they're that easy and delicious.

We did ours tonight with the Vietnamese ice cream (Chris did his with just some cinnamon sugar), and they were great. Pictures in the morning after Beck e-mails them to me.

I have never made crepes before... I always thought they were somehow difficult and not worth the effort.
Wrong!
They couldn't have been any easier! It did take a few tries to get the right amount of batter in the pan, but they really cook themselves.

I'm glad I picked this, because otherwise I never would have tried making them. Now I will do it again!

The strawberry sourcream ice cream is great~ just the right amount of tart and sweet. Photos on Sunday

Just finished my crepes. The only problem that I had was my pan was too large, so tilting the pan around and having so much extra room in the pan made for lopsided crepes. Oh well, they tasted the same. Filled with Turron Ice Cream, topped with a little honey and pistachios. Very good.
