Suzy's Pancakes

Rolled pancakes "Suzette"

These classic French pancakes, known as Suzy's pancakes, are sure to impress even those who don't particularly like pancakes. Especially when served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For adults, you can prepare this dessert with liqueurs such as Grand Marnier, Cointreau, or Limoncello, but it's best to omit the alcohol for the kids' version.

From one orange, remove the zest using a fine grater, and from the second orange, use a special knife to create thin, long strips. Squeeze the juice from one orange, we won't need the second one, you can add it to a fruit salad or carve fillets from the orange and serve them with pancakes.

Melt butter with sugar in a skillet, add the zest, juice, and, if desired, a couple of tablespoons of citrus liqueur. This will add extra spiciness to the dessert. For a children's version, alcohol is not necessary. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for a few minutes. The sauce will thicken slightly and change color to a brighter hue.

Fold each pancake multiple times to form a pocket. Place the pancakes in the hot sauce and heat them. If the size of the skillet allows, you can arrange all the pancakes at once, otherwise, you'll have to do it in multiple batches. I find it convenient to heat 4 pancakes at a time. Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with sauce and sprinkled with strips of orange zest. If desired, you can add ice cream for a contrast of warm and cold. Moreover, the ice cream balances out the excess sweetness. If you want to impress your guests, lightly heat a few spoons of liqueur, pour it over the pancakes, and immediately set it on fire. Serve immediately, garnished with zest. But be careful, don't burn yourself with the hot sauce.
