Crepes Suzette image

An elegant dessert of lovely, paper thin crepes in a delicious orange sauce. For the adventurous chef, use orange flavored liqueur and flambe it for a dramatic tableside presentation. Otherwise, orange extract can be substituted. For easier conversion, I added the measurements in metric.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The crepes were light and fluffy, and the orange sauce was flavorful. However, I found the recipe to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the sauce next time.

I'm not a big fan of crepes, but I have to admit that these were pretty good. The crepes were thin and delicate, and the orange sauce was light and flavorful. I would definitely make these again.

I've tried many crepe recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The crepes are thin, light, and have a slightly crispy edge. The orange sauce is also incredibly flavorful and pairs perfectly with the crepes.

The crepes were easy to make and the orange sauce was delicious, but I found the recipe to be a bit bland overall. I would add some spices or herbs next time to give it more flavor.
