Strawberry Crepes image

This is elegant, light and very tasty. Most of all quick and easy to make. Great for breakfast or dessert. I brought it in separate containers to a book club potluck tea. Everyone assembled their own and loved it.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crepes turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

The crepes were easy to make and the filling was delicious, but I found that the crepes were a bit too thick. I think I would thin out the batter a bit next time.
