I created a recipe just like this for ready set cook this summer It is a contest that is held be recipezaar and so far this is one of my favourite creations I made for that contest. The real version I made "smores" like with marshmallows, chocolate, graham cracker crumbs, and etc.... but today I made a much simpler version of this recipe with just ice cream and strawberries. Later I will post the full recipe of the higher calorie more complicated version of this recipe.
Ice Cream in Crepe Cups
Ingredients
6 (6 inch) prepared crepes
3 tablespoons butter
Splenda sugar substitute (for dusting crepes)
3 cups sugar-free vanilla ice cream
1 cup strawberries
1/2 cup prepared whipped cream (I use reduced fat/low calorie cool whip)
calorie free chocolate syrup
aluminum foil
Directions
1. Spread a bit of melted butter onto one side of the crepes then sprinkle some splenda onto each crepe on the buttered side.
2. Put prepared 6 inch crepes into 1/2-cup greased muffin tins or ramekins sugar side up.
3. Pace a ball of foil in the center of each cup to keep the crepes open.
4. Bake crepe cups in a preheated oven 400°F for 4 minutes, remove the foil, then continue to bake the cups for 6 to 7 minutes more, or until they are crisp.
5. Remove crepes from oven and let cool.
6. Scoop the ice cream into each crepe cup, filling as full as you would like taking care not to break the crepe cups.
7. Top with whipped cream and syrup and serve!
