These are pretty much a dream, like,  when I took my first bite I was in heaven! I couldn’t believe how delicious they were – and even though I was only planning on eating a couple bites, I ended up eating three (thats right THREE) crepes. Each full of this delicious creamy filling, and sweet berries.

Its like a berry cheesecake inside of a crepe crust. Doesn’t that sound like absolute perfection?

Okay, so I think a lot of people think that crepes are hard to make, but I’m here to tell you that they are not! I have a crepe maker, but it was being spazzy, so I didn’t even use it for this recipe. I just made my crepe batter by putting all the ingredients into the blender and pulsing till smooth. Then refrigerating the batter for an hour (or more). Meanwhile make your smooth cream cheese whipped cream – aka cheesecake filling, and put that in the fridge too.

Then you’ll saute up your berries and a little sugar, till they get a little juicy and so good! Cook up your crepes in a large saute pan (or a crepe maker – but you totally dont NEED it) and then roll your crepes up with the cream cheese filling and the juicy berries and dig right in!!

  1. I am going to make these for a crowd of 12-14 for a “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” dinner group. I will make crepes ahead of time. Can I assemble 1-1.5 hrs before needing them?

    Reply

    • Susie! I think they’d get a bit soggy if you fully prepared them that early. You could have everything ready and the crepes can definitely be made in advanced, but I wouldn’t assemble them early.

  2. O…. M….. G….. ! I don’t think I have tasted anything better than this. I can die now. Why did I wait so long to try it?? Seriously people, this is the equivalent to hitting the lotto! Insanely yummy!

  3. Cream filling was way too sweet to the point it was almost inedible and that’s saying a lot since I have a major sweet tooth. All three of my teenage children agreed. Next time I’ll try halving or adding 1/3 the amount of sugar in both the cream filling and the sliced strawberry mixture.

    Reply

    • So sorry you thought it was too sweet. I have had plenty of people make these and love the crepes and filling, sorry you didn’t.

  4. I came to this site in search of a delicious filling for the crepe recipe I have been using for years that my french grandmother handed down to me. The crepe recipe on this site (berries and creme) is very similar to my grandmother’s authentic french recipe. This one calls for an extra T. of sugar and water, and doesn’t call for vanilla, but other than that, it’s my grandmother’s recipe which is outstanding. I would assume this recipe is runnier than my grandmother’s though because it calls for water in addition to the milk but I’m sure its delicious!

    I cannot wait to try out the filling as it sounds wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

  5. I made these crepes this morning and they turned out AMAZING!!! My first time ever making crepes, and it was so simple. Thank you for the recipe!!! We just used fresh blackberries for the preserves and added a touch of orange zest. It was so good! Thanks a bunch!

  6. what kind of butter should be used for the crepes? salted or unsalted? and can i substitute almond milk for the milk?

    Reply

    • I always use unsalted. I haven’t tried it with almond milk but I assume it should work fine!

  7. I am having difficulty whipping the cream cheese enough to remove the granuals from the sugat. Maybe powdered sugar is what it is supposed to read?

    Reply

    • You dont need the sugar to dissolve you just want to beat it until the cream cheese is smooth. You won’t feel the sugar crystals when you’re eating it.

      Reply

  8. Can the crepes be made a day ahead of serving them? Refrigerated overnight? Heated up ‘how’ the next morning?

    Reply

    • Yeah, the crepes should be fine made the day ahead. I’d just stack them and wrap them up in plastic wrap and then microwave then till warm the next day!

      Reply

    • I refridgerated mine for a bit while I was cooking up the crepes, but I think it would cool down a bit at room temperature as well and would be fine that way too!

      Reply

  12. Those look and sound delicious. I have never tried crepes.. don’t see them around much where I live. Must.make.soon!

    Reply

    • You definitely need to change that ASAP Renee! I’ve only made them a couple times, but each time I do I wish I made them more, so easy and SO delicious!

      Reply

  18. Oh my goodness, it’s been WAY to long since I last had crepes! These seriously look so amazing, Aimee! That sauce and filling is perfection!

    Reply

  21. I love crepes and yours look DIVINE! I love that creamy filling and it would be perfect paired with the berries. Oh how I wish we could have gotten together in real life for this fun collab, everything looks SO good! Thanks so much for participating in my giveaway, I’m so happy to have you!

    Reply

    • That would have been amazing! We definitely need to get together for breakfast one day! Thanks for putting the giveaway together 🙂

  22. Berries & Cream is such a classic combo and I bet these crepes taste amazing! I love that you macerated the berries rather than using fresh ones! Can’t wait to try this recipe, Aimee!
