Preparation: 50 minutes Cook: 15 minutes Plus: 2 hours to chill batter
Crepe Batter:
1. Make crepe batter: whisk egg and milk lightly together in medium
mixing bowl. Add flour, sugar, lemon zest, and salt and whisk until smooth.
Refrigerate covered at least 2 hours or overnight. 2. One hour before
serving, make lemon sauce: heat water and sugar in heavy medium saucepan
until sugar dissolves. Add lemon slices and simmer 30 minutes. Cool to room
temperature. 3. Make crepes: coat crepe pan on 6-inch nonstick skillet with
thin layerof butter or oil. Heat pan over medium-high heat. Pour in 2
tablespoons of the crepe batter and quickly tilt pan to spread batter
evenly. Cook until bottom is golden and edge has pulled away from side of
pan, about 3 minutes. Turn crepe and cook second side about 1 minute. Let
cool on plate and repeat with remaining batter to make 8 crepes in all.
(Crepes can be cooked in advance and refrigerated or frozen, tightly
wrapped. Warm in 300 degree oven before serving.) 4. Just before serving,
make cream filling: beat cream, sugar, and vanilla in mixer bowl until
stiff peaks form. 5. Place 2 crepes, golden side down, on each dessert
plate. Spoon cream filling onto each crepe and roll up, folding in edges
and placing seam side down on plates. Pour 1/4 cup lemon sauce over each
serving, and serve at once.
