These are the crepes with sweet cheese I made for my husband. Lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar. Normally my husband can eat a lot of food. These three wafer thin crepes put him out.
Crepe Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups milk (I prefer whole + Vit. D)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Combine the eggs, and milk well. Then add in the dry ingredients, along with butter. Mix well. Cook on a hot griddle / skillet pan over medium low heat. The idea is to pour the batter thinly, and to evenly coat the bottom of the skillet pan evenly. You want a nice, even tan color to the crepe before you flip and cook the other side.
Once you are done cooking, you can spread your filling of choice and then roll your crepe and serve. Some people don't fill them and fold them into quarters, serving them with fish roe, or pate. It's entirely up to you how you want to serve them. I was serving breakfast, so I made sweet cheese, and here is how I made it.
Sweet Cheese
- 1 1/2 cups farmers cheese or ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
- 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
It's almost too simple, right? And it's divine! Do enjoy yourself.
And remember, have fun with your food!
Oh! I almost forgot about my two pups! I made them their own crepes as well. All I did for filling was opened a can of wet dog food and split it between the two crepes and gave each one their own. Sounds silly, I know, but they thought they were in Heaven being served some fancy meal. It got Clara to eat her antihistamine, too, which was a total plus in my book. Little shit likes to find it and pick it out of her peanut butter treat. Westies. They are smart.
