Crepes with Strawberry Cream Cheese Filling

from Christy Westover

Crepes
2 Eggs, Beaten
1 ½ Cups Vanilla Soy Milk (or plain soy milk if you want to make a savory crepe)
1 Cup Flour
1 TBLSP Oil
¼ TSP Salt

In bowl, combine all ingredients and beat until combined. Heat a lightly greased skillet; remove from heat. Spoon approx. 2 tablespoons of batter; lift and tilt skillet to spread batter. Return to heat; brown on 1 side only. (Or, cook on a crepemaker.) Remove crepe. Repeat with remaining batter, grease skillet between each crepe.

Filling
12 oz of Plain Cream Cheese, Softened
½ Cup sugar
3 TBLSP Vanilla Soy Milk
2 Cups (or as much as you like) Strawberries, Chopped

In bowl combine cream cheese and sugar. Beat with mixer (use non-stick beaters) on medium until smooth. Mix in the milk. Combine strawberries with mixture. You can use a little less sugar if you are using the vanilla soy milk. (Plain milk substitute).

Fill crepes with filling, roll, top with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar.
