Makes 4 Servings

Ingredients for Sweet Crepes

• 4 large eggs
• 2 Tspn cream
• 1/2 tspn sea salt
• 1/2 tspn vanilla extract
• Butter

Ingredients for Chocolate Mousse

• 1/2 pint cold low-sugar whipping cream
• 1 tspn vanilla extract
• 4 oz dark chocolate (85% or greater), finely chopped
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 tspn instant espresso powder

If you would like the crepes a little sweeter, add 1 tspn xylitol (or stevia).  Double for mousse, if desired.

Directions for Crepes:
Whisk together eggs, cream, salt, and vanilla extract (and xylitol or stevia, if you'd like) in a small mixing bowl until thoroughly blended.

Heat an omelette pan over medium to medium-high heat.  Lightly coat the bottom and sides of the pan with butter.  Ladle a small amount of batter in the pan; about 2.5 Tbspn.  Tip the pan back and forth to thinly coat the bottom of the pan.  Cook until set, and then lift and flip the crepe, being careful to not tear it.  Cook 1 min. more.  Slide crepe out of pan and onto a dish.  Continue making crepes until all of the batter is gone.

Directions for Mousse:
In a small mixing bowl, beat whipping cream & vanilla together on high speed until almost stiff.

Melt chocolate in the microwave for 15-sec intervals, stirring after each, until melted.

In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese (add xylitol or stevia, if you'd like) for 3 min.  Beat in sour cream and espresso powder.  Add melted chocolate and beat until combined.

Fold in a third of the whipped cream with a rubber spatula.  Gently fold in remaining whipped cream until just combined.  Spoon into crepes or pipe on top of crepes and garnish with grated dark chocolate.
