Chocolate Whipped Cream
  1. Chill the mixing bowl and whisk attachment for 15-30 minutes.
  2. Beat the heavy cream until it thickens, then add the sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Beat until semi-firm peaks form.
  3. Cover the chocolate whipped cream and refrigerate until ready to use.
Cooking Crepes
  1. Heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat and pour ⅓ cup of crepe batter in the center, swirling to spread it evenly.
