Dadar Gulung/Crepe With Sweet Coconut Filling

Dadar gulung is one among the popular snack/dessert in Indonesia. You can find this sweet dessert all over the place in Indonesia by the street food, in traditional market, desserts shop, traditional or special cake shop.
I was born and raised in Indonesia, so in my childhood time I can find this sweet dessert easily, but after I live abroad, there’s no way to find them in any store here in my town.
I was so craving for it and end up browsed the recipe from google.
And this one was my result of an afternoon experiment 😄
