For Crepes

• 2 cups flour
• 1 ½ cups milk
• 1 cup water
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons melted butter

For Filling

• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 jar of Nutella
• 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons of milk

For Chocolate Glaze

• 1 ¼ cups heavy cream

Directions
Making Crepes

1. Mix milk, water, eggs, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl.
2. In a large bowl, mix flour and the milk mixture together until it smooth.
3. Cover with plastic seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
4. Heat a crepe pan over medium heat and pour the melted butter into the pan a bit just enough to spread over the pan.
5. Reduce to medium-low heat, pour about 3 tablespoons batter into the pan, and twirl the pan to spread out the batter.
6. Cook until edges are golden then flip the crepe and cook for a minute.
7. When it is cooked, move the crepe to a plate. Cook the remaining batter with the same direction but do not forget to fill the pan with butter properly, you may end up with burning.

You could have about 15 to 20 crepes at the end. Before spreading, the crepes should be cooled down. Nutella can be melted if you spread it on too hot crepe.

For Filling

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix the butter and cream cheese until smooth.
2. Add the Nutella, vanilla extract, milk, and powdered sugar, continue creaming them.
3. Using a mixer or not, beat on high speed until soft and smooth, you can add milk or sugar if needed to make it spreadable.

This is the time, the crepes should be properly cool, use a tablespoon to spread the Nutella mixture in the crepes, and top them up. Continue layering with the Nutella and crepes, but ending with a clean crepe (do not spread it) on the top.

For the Chocolate Glaze

1. Over medium-high heat, boil cream, corn syrup and salt on a saucepan.
2. Remove from heat, add chocolate chips and cream then swirl the pan until completely covered.
3. Wait for 5 minutes then stir on medium-low heat until it smooth.
4. Finish, let's cool it.

Then you can spoon the glaze on the top of the cake, spread to edges, around sides of cake. Cool it in refrigerator until glaze is set, about 20 minutes. Finally you may decorate with toasted hazelnuts.
Cool! Chilly!
