Here is an easy way to make that old restaurant standard - Crepes Suzette.

Prep Time: 25 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 15 ounce jar (apprx. 2 cups) orange marmalade
  • 10 crepes
  • 1/4 cup orange-flavored liquor
  • 2 tablespoons brandy

Preparation:

Heat butter and marmalade in skillet until just bubbling. Add 1st crepe. Allow for sauce to cover both sides. Fold in half and then half again. Push folded crepe to side of pan and repeat with the remaining crepes. *Sprinkle crepes with liquor and brandy. With a long match very carefully ignite** pan. Carefully, spoon liquid over crepes in pan or rotate pan until flames go out. Serve 2 warm crepes per person.

**If you prefer not to flame your crepes, add the liqueur and brandy with the butter. Allow to cook a little before adding marmalade. Most of the alcohol should burn-off with this method as well.
