Crepes Recipe
We have crepes on a fairly regular basis in our home. They are so easy to make and my kids LOVE them. They love rolling them up on their own, adding fun toppings, and covering them in mountains of whipped cream.
Of all the different crepes we make, these cream cheese crepes are the overwhelming favorite crepes in my family and it’s easy to see why. They are delicious! The cream cheese filling is rich and decadent and when topped with fresh strawberries, these crepes can’t be beat!

- 2 cups milk
- 4 eggs

Instructions:
Crepe Batter :
Add eggs, milk, butter, sugar, vanilla, salt, and flour to your blender. Mix the crepe batter for 15-20 seconds or until fully combined.
Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour or overnight.
Spray an 8-10 inch non stick skillet with cooking spray and add 1/4 cup of crepe batter into pan.
Turn pan from side to side to allow crepe batter to form an even circle. Cook crepe over medium heat until the top appears to look dry and slides in the pan easy.
Flip crepe over and cook and additional 15-20 seconds. Remove from pan and stack crepes until ready to eat.

In a medium size mixing bowl add, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla. Mix well with a hand mixer until smooth.
In another medium size mixing bowl, add heavy whipping cream and 4 TBS powdered sugar. Mix with a hand mixer until whipping cream comes to a soft peak.
Add whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and fold together to combine.
