Worthy of a Special Occasion

Frozen berries make these sweet crepes a year-round treat, not just a seasonal splurge. Prepare and refrigerate the filling up to a day ahead.

Yield: 12 servings (serving size: 1 filled crepe)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2  cups  frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed
  • 1 1/2  cups  frozen unsweetened blueberries, thawed
  • 1  cup  sliced frozen unsweetened strawberries, thawed
  • 1/4  cup  granulated sugar
  • 1  teaspoon  cornstarch
  • 1  tablespoon  fresh lemon juice
  • 6  tablespoons  1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 12  Make-Ahead Crepes
  • 1  tablespoon  powdered sugar (optional)

Preparation

Combine first 5 ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in juice. Cool.

Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons cream cheese over each Make-Ahead Crepe, and top each with about 2 1/2 tablespoons berry mixture; roll up. Top each crepe with about 2 tablespoons berry mixture. Sift powdered sugar evenly over crepes just before serving, if desired.

These were really good. I made crepes myself instead of buying premade ones, so it took a little time. But after they were done, the rest was easy. The only complaint I have is that the berry mixture was very liquidy. I will add more cornstarch the next time to thicken up the sauce. Very tasty!02/26/08

made these for an impromptu brunch and they were wonderful. Very easy to put together and taste like you spent hours making them.11/25/07
