Cost: Recipe $5.44 / Serving $0.36
Ingredients
- 1 box (3 ounces) cook and serve vanilla pudding, prepared ($1.88)
- 2 ½ cups milk ($0.50)
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) Funfetti cake mix ($1.74)
- ½ cup vegetable oil ($0.35)
- 4 large eggs ($0.60)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, for greasing the pan ($0.37)
Garnishes
- whipped cream
- colorful sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare filling. Prepare the cook-and-serve vanilla pudding according to package directions using milk. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface and refrigerate until fully chilled.
- Mix batter. In a large bowl, whisk together the Funfetti cake mix, milk, vegetable oil, and eggs until smooth.
- Heat pan. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with melted butter, coating the bottom evenly.
- Cook crepes. Pour about ¼ cup batter into the skillet and immediately tilt the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even circle. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is lightly golden and the edges are set. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Repeat. Transfer crepe to a plate and repeat with remaining batter, buttering the pan lightly between each crepe. Makes about 30 crepes.
- Fill and assemble. Spread chilled pudding down the center of each crepe and roll into a log or fold into quarters.
- Garnish and serve. Top with whipped cream and sprinkles. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Filling amount. For 30 crepes, double the pudding if you want generously filled crepes.
- Heat control. Cook crepes over medium to medium-low heat to prevent browning too quickly.
- First crepe. The first crepe often cooks unevenly; consider it a test round.
- Pan prep. Lightly butter the pan before each crepe for even color and easy release.
