Preparation:
Put milk, melted butter and eggs in blender container or food processor bowl. Combine flour, salt, sugar and cinnamon. Add to milk mixture; blend until smooth. Allow batter to sit at room temperature about 10 - 15 minutes.
Heat a 5-inch skillet or crepe pan and grease lightly. Pour in about 3 tablespoons of batter; swirl around until batter covers bottom. Cook until crepe is brown on the bottom; turn and brown other side. Keep crepes warm in a 200 degree oven until all crepes are cooked.
When all ready, place 2 tablespoons marmalade or jam in center of each crepe. Roll; dust with powdered sugar. Heat butter in a chafing dish with remaining 1/2 cup jam or marmalade and the cognac or liquer. Place rolled up crepes in the chafing dish. Spoon hot sauce over them for 1 or 2 minutes, while sauce bubbles around them. Serve on warmed dessert plates.
To flambe: Fill a large serving spoon with cognac. Ignite it with a match. Stir into remaining sauce in chafing dish. Quickly spoon sauce, while still flaming, over the rolled crepes. |
