To cook the crepes:

Set a non-stick frying pan on low heat. Once the pan is hot, brush the oil and remove excess oil.

Step 1

Cook for 2 minutes without touching. By now you’d see the outside edge of the crepe gets tiny bit crispier.

Using a spatula flip the pancake.

Continue this process until there is no more batter.
You will have 13 pancakes by now.

To make whipped cream:

Step 1

Add the heavy whipping cream and whisk on lower speed.
Once you see bubbles, slowly add granulated sugar.

Step 2

Whip the cream until stiff.

To assemble the mille crepe cake:

Step 1

First place a larger pancake.

This will be the top layer when we flip. Put the freshly whipped cream in the middle and spread evenly.

Place another crepe on top and spread whip cream evenly, leaving outer ½ inch.

--> Continue this process until the last crepe is placed on top.

Step 2

Wrap the mille pancake with a plastic wrap.
Secure the end with clip.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours until the cake is set.

Extra:

Dust more matcha powder over the cake.
