  3. Spread the butter cream mix over the pancakes and fold them in half, and then in half again, so you have a wedge shape
  4. Layer the pancakes into a shallow baking dish and bake at 170C for about 10 minutes
  5. While theyre baking gently heat the juice of two oranges with the grated zest of one orange and one lemon, 4 tablespoons of Cointreau and 175g of brown sugar
  6. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and keep cooking until the sauce has reduced to a syrupy consistency
  7. Remove the baked pancakes from the oven and pour over the sauce
  8. Serve hot with whipped cream
  9. If youre a whiz at making macroons, another sweet idea is to mix a tablespoon of Cointreau into your butter cream filling
