Ingredients

Red Velvet Crepes:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 cup fat free milk
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 Tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder

White Crepes:

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup fat free milk
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 Tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

Filling:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup marshmallow creme
  • 8 ounces whipped cream

Fruit:

  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup blackberries

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

Make sure batter is smooth before cooking.
