  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange peel

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup orange-flavored liqueur

Steps

  • 1
    Beat Bisquick mix, milk and eggs in small bowl with fork or wire whisk until blended. Lightly butter 8-inch skillet; heat over medium heat until bubbly. For each crepe, pour 2 tablespoons batter into skillet; immediately rotate skillet until batter covers bottom. Cook until golden brown. Run wide spatula around edge to loosen; turn and cook other side until golden brown. Stack crepes, placing waxed paper between each; keep covered.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Crepe is the French word for "pancake," and crepes are usually light and paper-thin. They can be made from plain or sweetened batters and are used in both sweet and savory creations.
  • tip 2
    Crepes can be made ahead, stacked with waxed paper between and refrigerated up to 48 hours. For longer storage, make 2 stacks of crepes, wrap tightly and freeze no longer than 3 months (make 2 stacks so they'll thaw more easily). When ready to serve, thaw frozen wrapped crepes at room temperature about 2 hours or in refrigerator 8 to 12 hours.
  • tip 3
    A special occasion is a good time to get out the chafing dish from the back of the cupboard--or borrow one--for tableside presentation. Make the crepes ahead, then begin with step 2.
