DESSERT CREPES WITH STRAWBERRY CREAM FILLING
Yummy!! This recipe will knock the socks off any guest! This recipe my mother originally found out of a cookbook, but unfortunately I do not know which. This works well with both frozen and fresh strawberries. I'd imagine almost any fruit could be substituted as well. (Prep time does not include chilling of strawberries).

Steps:
- To make strawberry cream: Combine the strawberries and sugar and chill, anywhere from an hour to overnight.
- Drain excess water from strawberries and sugar.
- In mixing bowl blend cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Stir in reserved strawberries.
- To make dessert crepes: Beat eggs; add remaining ingredients (batter can be refrigerated up to 2 hours).
- Heat pan over med-high heat (you can use an actual crepe pan, but I just use a small frying pan).
- When a few drops of water sprinkled on the pan bounces is about the right temperature.
- Pour about 1/8 C of batter into pan, tilting to spread evenly.
- When the crepe has turned a light brown color you may or may not want to turn to brown other side.
- Turn to brown other side if batter has not set.

- May serve immedietly or chills well in the refrigerator (up to 2 days).
- Before serving I usually sprinkle a little extra powdered sugar on the crepes.
- The dessert crepe receipe will also work well with many other fillings.
Tips:
- Use a non-stick pan: This will prevent the crepes from sticking and make them easier to flip.
- Make sure the pan is hot before adding the batter: This will help the crepes to cook evenly.
- Pour a thin layer of batter into the pan: This will help the crepes to cook quickly and evenly.
- Flip the crepes when they are golden brown: You can use a spatula to flip the crepes, or you can toss them in the air if you're feeling adventurous!
- Fill the crepes with your favorite fillings: Some popular fillings include strawberry cream cheese, Nutella, and whipped cream.
