this easy recipe creates light crepes that are easy to roll or fold -- turning them over in the pan is the hardest part -- be patient waiting for them to thicken before you flip them - using a long thin spatula will help prevent tears in normal frying pan -- this recipe is small and makes about 8 to 10 - 6” crepes

How To Make walt's easy easy crepes
-
1Crepe - put the wet ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl -- then sift the flour into the mix -- I usually add the butter slowly at the end of the mixing -------------------------------- Cooking melt a little butter in a medium size pan - pour a small amount of the mix in pan so that it covers the bottom - cook on medium heat until the sheen is off the top of the crepe and then start thinking about turning it over -- once flipped it takes very little time for the other side to cook
-
2Filling - place the powdered sugar in a mixing bowl add the softened creme cheese - fold together with a fork (can use two if you are dexterious) until the sugar and cheese starts to incorporate -- then whisk-- it will take a few minutes depending on how soft the cheese is - you can add a little liquid (milk - syrup ) to the mix if you wish --- you can also add butter( not much) if you wish -- the idea here is to have a sauce that will fill the inside of the crepe -- not a cake frosting -- all though that would probably work too -
3plating - preparation - place the crepe on a plate -- brown side down ( you can do it either way) - dab a little strawberry jam on the crepe -- my wife likes to spread it -- I just put a dab on and forget it - feel free to substitute any type of jam you want(duh) -- my wife likes strawberry - pour a small amount of the creme cheese filling on the crepe away from the edge - roll from that side - drizzle more sauce on the top - if you want sprinkle some of the powdered sugar on top
