Instructions
- In a blender, combine the eggs, egg yolk, milk, water, salt, butter, sugar, vanilla, flour, cocoa powder, and red food coloring until smooth.
- Clean the blender and repeat the process for the white crepes.
- Keep the batters separate and let them sit for one hour before cooking them.
- While they sit, make the cream filling by beating the cream cheese until it is smooth and creamy.
- Then add the marshmallow cream and continue to blend.
- Fold in the whipped cream until everything is fully combined.
- Place in fridge until ready to use.
- Once the batters have sat for an hour, preheat the stovetop to medium heat.
- Spray a pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Add about 1/3 - 1/4 cup of batter to the pan and tilt the pan in a circular motion until the batter is spread out in a rounded circle.
- Let the crepe cook for about 1 minute on each side.
- Once they crepe is done, add about 2-3 tablespoons of the cream mixture to the crepe, and decorate with desired fruit.
- We prefer strawberries, blueberries and blackberries, but all fruit would be delicious with these!
Notes
