Crepe Cake with Dulce de Leche

Crepe Cake

I was leafing through my new cookbook, Secrets of a Skinny Chef, to get some fresh ways to spin the recipes for my readers as they cook their way through.

With warm weather on the way, eating outdoors is a pleasure and a treat: No one wants to heat up the oven to bake a cake, but you can easily make a fabulous crepe cake simply by tripling my “blender pancake” recipe, which also happens to be made with 100% whole wheat flour. It’s basically a crepe preparation, that you can layer with just about any filling. So yesterday, I layered jarred dulce de leche in between the crepes for a South American inspired sweet!

For a simple, rich tasting chocolate sauce to top this beauty, heat a heavy saucepan over medium heat and add 1/4 cup bittersweet chips mixed with 2 tablespoons skim milk. Stir well until melted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle over your thin flap jack stack and serve it up.

Can’t find dulce the leche in your local grocery store? Make your own with these instructions.
