Instructions
Crepes
In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk in the flour until completely incorporated.
In a non-stick 6-7 inch pan or cast-iron skillet on medium-low heat, add a pat of butter and swirl the pan so the butter coats the bottom and sides.
Measure approximately ¼ cup of batter into the pan. Then, hold the pan and swirl the batter around until it covers the bottom of the pan (and up the sides a touch is ok too).
After about two minutes, gently turn the crepe over and cook on the other side for another 2 minutes or until golden on both sides. Remove the crepe onto some parchment paper to cool. Repeat with the remaining batter, making sure to add another pat of butter before drying each crepe.
Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting
Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, whisk the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Then, add the cream cheese and confectioners sugar until just combined.
Now, add in the chopped strawberries and mix until blended in completely.
Spoon roughly ¼ cup of the strawberry cream cheese filling into the middle of each warm crepe. You can fold the crepes in half twice, or roll them up like a tortilla.
Top with sliced fresh strawberries. You can also drizzle additional strawberry cream cheese filling and/or dust confectioners sugar on top.
