This cake is so delicious and easy to make. The recipe for the crêpes is so buttery and it goes perfectly with the apple compote. These delicate wafer thin layers of vanilla crêpes stacked up high between layers of gooey apple filling for a beautiful presentation are a new twist on the classic crêpe custard cake.
