Chocolate Mousse Crepes

Submitted by Nif_H

"Anyone up for a double shot of chocolate? Make the chocolate crepes from Recipe #354547. I included the 2 hour refrigeration time in the prep time as it is essential. This is a recipe from an old 1970's cookbook that myself and my oldest Son still cook from. They are really great. Enjoy!"
