Directions
- Make Crepes: In a large bowl whisk Large eggs. Add in lowfat milk, club soda, sugar, rum, vanilla, and salt, blending till sugar dissolves. Gradually sift in flour to create a batter. Add in extra virgin olive oil. Stir in orange and lemon peels.
- In a 6- to 7- inch nonstick pan over medium high heat, heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil, pouring off the excess. Pour a scant 1/4 c. of batter into pan, tilting it to distribute batter as proportionately as possible. Return pan to heat, reduce heat to medium and cook crepe till lightly browned, 30 to 40 seconds. Carefully flip crepe with a spatula and cook the second side till brown spots appear, about 30 seconds more. Transfer crepe to a warmed platter. Repeat with remaining batter, re-oiling the pan only as necessary. Stack the finished crepes and keep hot under a mixing bowl.
- Make chocolate-walnut filling: Heat chocolate in the top of a double boiler over warm (not boiling) water. Stir chocolate to heat proportionately. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 c. of walnuts.
- Spread a generous Tbsp. of the chocolate mix over half of a crepe.
- Fold the other half over the chocolate, then fold crepe in half again to create a triangle. Repeat.
- To serve, arrange four crepes on each plate. Dollop with whipped cream and sprinkle with remaining walnuts and confectioner's sugar. Serve immediately.
- Makes 9 servings.
