My daughter, Dena, is the real cook in our family, and she's always trying new recipes and encouraging me to fix things, too. She insisted I make these crepes, and I'm glad she did-now they are my husband Jake's favorite dessert!

Steps:
- Whisk together first 5 ingredients plus cornmeal for crepe batter. Beat in milk, half-and-half, and beaten eggs, then add butter and oil and stir until smooth.
- In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon peel until fluffy. Beat in the lemon juice.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold into the cream cheese mixture and refrigerate.
- Pre-heat skillet or other flat pan to medium heat. Grease the pan with a tiny bit of butter. Add 2 tablespoons of crepe batter to the middle of the pan, then tilt and rotate the pan to form a thin, circular crepe. Cook until bubbles form on the top and sides begin to lift, then flip. Cook about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Repeat with the rest of the batter. (I do not add additional butter after the first crepe because I find it easier to form the crepes with less butter. You may need to add butter in between crepes depending on the pan you use.)
- In a sauce pan, bring the sugar and water to a boil on medium-high heat, cooking undisturbed about 5 minutes. Add blueberries, lemon juice, and salt. Cook 4 additional minutes then remove from heat.
- When all crepes are finished, spread some cream cheese mixture towards one side of crepe, then roll to other side. Top with blueberry sauce.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Combine the milk, water, eggs, flour, salt and sugar in a blender. Blend on medium speed for 15 seconds, until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Scrape down the sides of the blender and pour in 3 tablespoons of melted butter. Blend it again for a second just to incorporate. Refrigerate the batter for 1 hour to let it rest. If the crepes are made immediately, they have a tendency to be rubbery; when you let the batter rest, the crepes have a better texture and a softer bite.
- Put an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter for added assurance. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swirl it around so it covers the bottom evenly; pour back any excess. Cook for 30 to 45 seconds, until the crepe batter sets. Lightly bang the edge of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the crepe; then flip it and cook another 30 seconds. The art of flipping a crepe in the air takes practice, so make sure no one is looking when you get the first one going. If this intimidates you, use a heatproof rubber spatula to loosen and flip the crepe. The crepes should be pliable, not crisp, and lightly brown. Slide them onto a platter and continue making the crepes until all the batter is used. Cover the stack of crepes with a towel to keep them from drying out. This makes 10 crepes.
- Assembly: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Forming the blintzes is kind of like making burritos. Spoon 1/4 cup of the Cheese Filling along the lower third of the crepe. Fold the bottom edge away from you to just cover the filling; then fold the 2 sides in to the center. Roll the crepe away from you a couple of times to make a package, ending with the seam side down. Put an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Brush with melted butter. Pan-fry the blintzes for 2 minutes per side until crisp and golden.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10 minutes so the egg in the filling cooks slightly and the cheese sets. Using a spatula, transfer the blintzes to serving plates. Spoon the Blueberry Sauce on top, dust with confectioners' sugar, and serve right away.
- Serve with chopped banana and remaining Blueberry Sauce. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
- In a food processor, combine the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, lemon zest, and egg and blend until smooth. Chill the filling to firm it up a bit so it doesn't squirt out of the blintzes.
- Combine the butter, blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a small pot over medium-high heat. Bring up to a low boil and stir gently until the berries break down and release their natural juices. The consistency should remain a bit chunky. It will thicken up when it cools down slightly.
BLUEBERRY LEMON CRêPES
Steps:
- To make the lemon curd, add enough water to a medium saucepan (or the bottom of a double boiler) to come about 1 inch up the side. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Put the egg yolks and sugar in a medium nonreactive metal bowl and whisk until smooth and pale yellow, about 1 minute. Add the lemon zest and juice and whisk until smooth.
- Once the water reaches a simmer, reduce the heat under the pan to low and place the bowl with the egg mixture in it on top; the bowl should not touch the water. Cook, whisking constantly, until the curd thickens, is light yellow, and coats the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter a piece at a time, allowing each addition to melt before adding the next. Transfer to a clean bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the curd. Refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or overnight.
- To make the blueberry compote, combine 1 pint of the blueberries, the sugar, and the lemon zest and juice in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar has melted and the berries are soft, 5 minutes.
- Stir together the cornstarch and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir into the blueberries and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add the crème de cassis and the remaining 1 pint blueberries. Let cool to room temperature. The compote can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day.
- To make the crêpes, whisk together the eggs, yolks, and granulated sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the limoncello and milk and mix until combined.
- Add the flour and mix until just smooth. Stir in the butter. Cover the bowl and let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
- Line a large plate with parchment or wax paper. Heat a crêpe pan or an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Add 3 tablespoons crêpe batter to the skillet and immediately tilt and swirl the skillet to spread the batter evenly over the bottom. Cook until the center of the crêpe is cooked through and the edges are lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gently flip and cook the other side for 20 seconds. Invert the crêpe onto the prepared plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, spraying the pan with cooking spray and placing parchment paper between crêpes. The crêpes can be made 1 day in advance, covered, and refrigerated.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the crêpes, pale side up, on a flat surface and spread about 3 tablespoons of the lemon curd down the center of each crêpe. Using a slotted spoon, top the curd with some of the blueberry compote (reserve the leftover blueberry syrup), then roll up each crêpe. Arrange the crêpes, seam side down, on the baking sheet, brush the tops with a little of the brown butter, and sprinkle with a little confectioners' sugar. Heat in the oven until just warm, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Drizzle some of the brown butter and blueberry compote syrup onto 6 large plates. Place 2 crêpes on each plate, drizzle the tops with a little more of the brown butter and some of the blueberry syrup, and garnish with mint if desired.
- Brown Butter
- Combine the butter and salt in a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat and cook, swirling the pan several times, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Serve hot.

Tips:
- To make the crepes, use a non-stick skillet or crepe pan. This will help prevent them from sticking and make them easier to flip.
- Be sure to heat the skillet or crepe pan over medium heat before adding the batter. This will help the crepes cook evenly.
- Pour a thin layer of batter into the skillet or crepe pan. The crepe should be about 1/8-inch thick.
- Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown.
- To make the lemon crème filling, whisk together the lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, and water in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract. Set aside to cool.
- To make the blueberry topping, combine the blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the blueberries have softened.
- To assemble the crepes, spread a thin layer of lemon crème filling on each crepe. Top with blueberries and roll up.
- Serve the crepes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for later.

Lemon crème crepes with blueberry topping are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The crepes are light and fluffy, the lemon crème filling is tart and tangy, and the blueberry topping is sweet and juicy. This dessert is sure to please everyone at your table.
