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).

DESSERT CREPES
Steps:
- In large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, flour, sugar and salt until smooth.
- Heat a medium-sized skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease pan with a small amount of butter or oil applied with a brush or paper towel.
- Using a serving spoon or small ladle, spoon about 3 tablespoons crepe batter into hot pan, tilting the pan so that bottom surface is evenly coated. Cook over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes on a side, or until golden brown.
- Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right pan: A non-stick pan is essential for making perfect crepes. Make sure the pan is large enough to accommodate the crepes you want to make.
- Heat the pan properly: The pan should be hot enough to cook the crepes evenly. If the pan is not hot enough, the crepes will stick. You can test the heat of the pan by flicking a few drops of water into it. If the water sizzles and evaporates immediately, the pan is hot enough.
- Use the right amount of batter: Pour just enough batter into the pan to cover the bottom. If you use too much batter, the crepes will be thick and doughy. If you use too little batter, the crepes will be thin and fragile.
- Cook the crepes on both sides: Cook the crepes for about 1 minute on each side, or until they are golden brown. Flip the crepes carefully with a spatula. If the crepes are not cooked through, they will be difficult to fold.
- Fill the crepes with your favorite fillings: Once the crepes are cooked, you can fill them with your favorite fillings. Some popular fillings include Nutella, whipped cream, fruit, and cheese.
Conclusion:
Crepes are a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a little practice, you can make perfect crepes at home. Be sure to experiment with different fillings and toppings to find your favorite combinations.
