Faux crêpes suzette

Crêpes Suzette never fails to impress, and it's on the table in mere minutes, no mixing or baking required. Usually flambéed table side in a luxurious, old school flourish, the irresistible dessert is all rich, caramelized sugar and butter, spiked with orange liqueur. Named for the companion of the future King Edward VII of England, the creation is said to have been born of a fortunate culinary mistake, when a young assistant waiter in the Parisian cafe where the couple was dining caught a cordial on fire, having set it dangerously close to the flaming chafing dish in which he was preparing the crêpes. As the story goes, the waiter tasted the unexpected sauce he'd made, and found the flavor so delectable that he dared to serve the dessert anyway. Our version doesn't involve fire, but it's every bit as divine.
