2. Brush a 10-inch nonstick skillet lightly with some of melted butter, then heat over medium-high heat until hot.

7. Center a crêpe on a serving plate and spread with 1/4 cup cream. Continue stacking crêpes and spreading with cream, ending with a crêpe.
8. Chill, covered, at least 4 hours and up to 24.
