Strawberry Crepes Recipe
Make yummy strawberry crepes with this quick and easy recipe.
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- zest of half a lemon
- juice of half a lemon
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups whipped cream dairy or dairy-free, plus additional for garnish
- 8 sweet crepes prepared
- 4 cups strawberries sliced

Instructions
- In a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat cream cheese until no lumps remain. Add powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla and beat until completely smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl often.
- Add half (¾ cup) of the whipped cream then fold it into the cream cheese mixture to lighten the consistency. Once incorporated, gently fold in the remaining ¾ cup.
- Place 2 generously heaping tablespoons of the cream mixture into the center of a prepared crepe then spread toward the edges. Add about ½ cup of the sliced strawberries on top and roll or fold the crepe as desired. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Top each crepe with a light dusting of powdered sugar and a dollop of whipped cream and serve. Enjoy!
