Crepes with Caramel Sauce and Toasted Pecans


INGREDIENTS

Crepes
2 1/2 cups whole milk
5 large eggs
1 cup all purpose flour
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted, cooled slightly
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
Additional melted butter (for frying)
Sauce
3 cups cajeta
3/4 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons Cognac or brandy
2 cups pecans, toasted, chopped

PREPARATION

For crepes:
Combine first 6 ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Let stand 1 hour at room temperature. Blend again before using.

Brush 8- to 9-inch-diameter nonstick skillet lightly with melted butter. Heat over medium-high heat. Pour scant 1/4 cupful batter into skillet, tilting to allow batter to coat bottom of skillet. Cook until crepe is golden on bottom, about 1 minute. Turn crepe over and cook until brown on bottom, about 45 seconds. Transfer to paper towel. Repeat with remaining batter, making about 24 crepes and stacking crepes between paper towels. Cool.
