Preparation
Step 1
In the top of a double boiler over simmering water, melt the chocolate, cream, and sugar. Stir and remove from the heat.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. When it is sizzling, add the banana slices and cook until brown on both sides.
Step 3
Divide the banana slices among the crêpes. Drizzle each crêpe with 2 tablespoons of the chocolate sauce and fold one-third of the bottom up; then fold each side in toward the center to make an envelope. Fold the top of each crepe down to seal it.
Step 4
Heat a little butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the crêpes and warm for about 1 minute, just until they are hot. Serve immediately.
