Basic Recipe for 8 Crepes: In small bowl combine flour, melted butter, whole egg, egg yolk and 1/4 cup milk. Beat with rotary beater until smooth. Beat in remaining milk until mixture is well blended. Refrigerate, covered at least 30 minutes. Slowly heat an 8-inch skillet until a drop of water sizzles and rolls off. For each crepe, brush skillet lightly with butter. Pour in about 2 tablespoons batter, rotating pan quickly to spread batter completely over bottom. Cook until lightly browned; then turn and brown other side. Turn out on wire rack. Keep warm in 300 degrees oven. (Stack crepes with a piece of waxed paper between each 2 if not using for several hours.) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
