• In a medium skillet, melt the 1/4 tablespoon butter; add the mushrooms; saute for about 4 minutes.
• Add the onion and continue to saute until the onion is translucent (about 3 more minutes). Set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, melt the 3 tablespoons butter; add the flour, stirring until smooth. I cooked this mixture on medium-medium high for about two minutes trying to get it to brown, but no luck.
• Slowly add the chicken stock, one 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
• Once the stock is incorporated, slowly stir in the white wine as you stir to avoid lumps.
• Add the garlic powder and ground black pepper.
• Turn heat up to medium high and stir so the mixture is very hot, but not boiling.
• Add the sour cream and stir briskly. The lumps will dissipate as you continue to cook the sauce.
• Stir in the brie pieces; turn heat down to medium low.
• Add in the parsley and sauteed mushrooms and onions.
• Continue to heat the sauce, stirring occasionally until all lumps are removed.
• At this point, you can either create your crepes or use your prepared crepes. I made my crepes while my sauce softly simmered.
• Place one slice of prosciutto on the crepe.
• Place four spears of asparagus on the crepe. Roll up the crepe.
• Top with the sauce.
• Serve and enjoy!
