Chocolate Crêpes

chocolate crepesLet the Valentine’s Day countdown begin! To start Valentine’s Week off (yes I turned Valentine’s Day into a whole week because I love it so much!), here is a romantic Valentine’s Day breakfast idea: chocolate crêpes with chocolate hazelnut spread and strawberries. Nocciolata sent me a few samples of their delicious organic chocolate hazelnut spread, which went just perfectly with these chocolate crêpes. It is made with dark chocolate from the Antillean Islands, Italian hazelnuts, brown sugar, skim milk and Bourbon vanilla extract. They would like to send a lucky winner some samples of their delicious chocolate hazelnut spread too, so be sure to enter the giveaway below by 2/14 using the Rafflecopter widget (US residents only). The winner will be chosen via Random.org on 2/14 and I will contact him/her via email. You can also check back here to see who won after 2/14.

For some, these chocolate crêpes may be too sweet for breakfast, but not me! I love chocolate for breakfast (or anytime for that matter!). Crêpes are always a favorite breakfast of mine, and chocolate crêpes are even more of a special treat. What is your favorite crêpe filling? Do you prefer them more savory or sweet? For breakfast or dessert?

    My favorite crepe filling is raspberry. I have never had chocolate-filled crepes, but this recipe looks wonderful!

    Depends on my mood…. I’ve had fruit/whipped cream, and I’ve had Asparagus, ham & cheese topped with hollandaise… both are GREAT (there was a Creperie right next door to where I used to work… Saddest day EVER when she closed shop)
