so i was informed that at Easter Breakfast at our church was a big to-do. i had never yet attended because we were always out of town for easter. i began researching what i wanted to create, and came upon this Martha Stewart recipe in my newest Easter edition of Martha Stewart LIVING. needless to say, it looked nothing like the amazing picture, but, mine turned out delectable, nonetheless, and it's not quite as hard to do if you substitute a few things. it got rave reviews from our friends at church.
instead of making her crepes, make your own. my recipe is from my dad and came from a 1970's recipe book, of which i can't name off the top of my head:
crepes
1 cup plus 2 tb sifted flour
4 tb sugar
pinch salt
(put in bowl)
3 eggs beaten
1 1/2 c. milk
throw in a hint of vanilla (1 tsp)
(pour into flour mix, whisk until smooth)
then add 1 tb melted butter
put 1 tb butter on pan to prepare it, low heat
makes a great pile of crepes for 2-3 people
then use the martha stewart recipe:
and instead of making her exact meyer lemon curd mousse, create your own with one jar of lemon curd (found in the jam aisle--i never knew!!!) and heavy whipping cream and some sugar. mix to taste.
hers looks incredible in the magazine....
my mousse was a little runny...mine turned out looking like this:
