One of the most delicious sweet crepes to make are these strawberry and raspberry crepes. It can be served for breakfast or dessert. Italian mascarpone cream cheese makes for a yummy creamy filling. Once assembled it is a show-stopper and will please anyone. Best of all, it tastes so good. What’s not to love?
What’s Inside the Crepes
Berries and cream go well together in this recipe. If you haven’t tried mascarpone cream cheese, I urge you to try it. Once you’ve had it, it will be a keeper. Trader Joe’s sells it at a reasonable price of less than $4 dollars. Finding fresh berries is also key to the best crepes. I use fresh strawberries and raspberries, eggs, flour, milk, canola oil, salt, sugar and vanilla yogurt. Sometimes I like to add lemon zest to the filling mixture.
It is a lot of fun to make these crepes. What’s even more fun is eating them. You can prepare the crepes hours before and keep it covered until you are ready to assemble it. The next time you are looking for an easy dessert, try making it.

Use a spatula to lift crepe out of the pan and transfer to a flat dish. Cover crepe with wax paper to prevent sticking and drying.
