Roll up, and place, seam side down, in prepared dish. Spoon remaining 2 cups Wine-Cheese Sauce over Crêpes. Sprinkle with Swiss cheese, and dot with remaining 1/4 cup butter. Cover and chill for 3 hours. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
Step 5
Bake at 450° for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Garnish, if desired.

Worthy of a special occasion yes. But also a great recipe for a surprise weeknight dinner since it's make-ahead friendly. Certainly not low in fat or calories. But that's also what makes it sinfully delicious. We substitute scallops for the shrimp because of a food allergy, and next week I'll make it for my husband's birthday dinner with lobster -- his favorite.

I'm glad there is no calorie count on this recipe. With three cups of heavy whipping cream, a stick of butter, and 4 cups of Swiss cheese, it just had to be delicious. And it sure was. Not only that, but it fed quite a crowd.
