CHEF JOHN'S STRAWBERRY CREPE CAKE
Using this simple 'crepe cake' technique, you can turn any of your favorite cake fillings into visually stunning, multi-layered masterpieces. By the way, I say this is simple, not fast, as it does take some time to make and stack all those crepes, but once you get rolling, it goes pretty quickly. Use the ingredient amounts only as a guide, as crepe sizes and filling amounts will vary. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh strawberries.

Steps:
- For the batter: Blend the flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor or blender. Add the milk, water, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract, and process until smooth. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.
- For the fruit: While batter rests, hull and halve the strawberries. Toss with blackberries, sugar, and orange liqueur, if using, in a medium bowl; set aside.
- For the filling: Whisk the cheeses with the sugar, orange zest and juice, and the vanilla extract.
- To make the crepes: Heat an 6-inch nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat until a drop of water bounces and sizzles briefly on its surface before evaporating. Quickly pour in about 2 tablespoons of crepe batter and swirl it to coat the skillet evenly. Cook until the batter sets, about 30 seconds. Flip the crepe and cook the other side until just barely golden. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as they cook.
- Place 1 tablespoon of the cheese filling on the lower left-hand corner of each crepe. Fold crepe in half, then half again to make a triangle with filling in the tip. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling. Stack filled crepes neatly on serving platter (or hotel pan). (The crepes can be prepared up to this point a day ahead, covered tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerated overnight.)
- To serve: Preheat an oven to 250 degrees F. Cover crepes with foil and warm in the oven until heated through, about 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Stir first 3 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Cover mascarpone cream; chill.
- Stir strawberry preserves in heavy small saucepan over low heat until melted. Spread 1/2 tablespoon preserves over 1 side of each crepe. Fold crepes in half, enclosing preserves. Fold crepes in half again, forming triangles.
- Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Spread butter over both sides of crepes. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over both sides of crepes. Transfer to baking sheet. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover crepes and refrigerate. Keep mascarpone cream refrigerated.)
- Preheat oven to 200°F. Spray large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add 6 crepes to skillet. Sauté until sugar begins to caramelize, about 45 seconds per side. Transfer crepes to another baking sheet; keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining crepes, wiping skillet and spraying with vegetable oil spray before each batch.
- Arrange 3 crepes on each plate. Spoon Fresh strawberry marmalade over crepes. Spoon dollops of mascarpone cream atop marmalade and serve.
Tips:
- For the perfect crepe batter, make sure to whisk the ingredients together until smooth and lump-free. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking, this allows the flour to absorb the liquid and results in a more tender crepe.
- When cooking the crepes, use a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Pour a thin layer of batter onto the pan and swirl it around to evenly coat the surface. Cook for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- While the crepes are cooking, prepare the strawberry marmalade and mascarpone cream. For the marmalade, simply combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until thickened.
- For the mascarpone cream, whip mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form. You can also add some vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- To assemble the crepes, spread a layer of mascarpone cream onto each crepe. Top with strawberry marmalade and roll up. You can also fold the crepes into quarters or triangles.
