Holiday Crepe Cake With Orange Frosting
Light, delicate layers of crepes stacked tall and filled with a bright, citrusy cream cheese frosting make this cake a showstopper. It’s festive, flavorful, and surprisingly simple to make at home!Crepe Ingredients:½ cup water1 cup milk4 eggs¼ cup melted butter2 tbsp sugar1 cup flourPinch of saltFrosting Ingredients:1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter14 oz (1 can) sweetened condensed milk8 oz softened cream cheese2 tsp vanilla extractZest from 2 orangesCrepe Method:Add all crepe ingredients to a blender. Stir slightly with a rubber spatula, and then run the blender until all ingredients are smooth and a batter forms. Scrape down the sides of the blender and re-blend as needed to ensure that all dry ingredients are incorporated. Set aside.Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, spray a small amount of pan spray onto the surface. Ladle in the crepe batter and swirl the pan until the batter reaches the edges of the bottom of the pan.Cook crepe until the edges start to brown, about 15-30 seconds. Flip the crepe and cook for another few seconds.Remove the crepe to a cooling rack and continue the process until all the batter has been used. You should have about 15 crepes total.Spread all crepes out on a cooling rack and allow to cool to room temperature. Be careful not to stack hot crepes on top of one another.Frosting Method:In the bowl of a stand mixer with a whip attachment, or with a hand mixer, combine the softened butter and sweetened condensed milk. Run the machine slowly to start, then increase to high for 7 minutes.Add the softened cream cheese, vanilla, and orange zest. Whip an additional 3 minutes.Assembly Method:Place one crepe onto a serving plate. Top the crepe with 1/8 cup (1oz) of the filling and spread with a spatula. Place the next crepe on top of the previous one and continue building layers until all crepes are used. Refrigerate until frosting has set, at least 6 hours (overnight is best).Slice and serve with the topping of your choice.
