Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir for 1 minutes. Pour a little hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to saucepan, blending thoroughly. Blend in sherry. Set aside 1 cup sauce. Add chicken to remaining sauce. Spread ¼ cup filling on each crepe. Roll up. Place in buttered 13 X 9 baking pan. Fold whipped cream into remaining sauce and spoon over crepes.
