Preparation

Step 1

Crepes:
Sift flour and salt into a large bowl. Whisk together milk and eggs in a medium bowl. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture, whisking to combine. Whisk in butter. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Buckwheat Variation:
Substitute 3/4 c buckwheat flour for 3/4 c white flour, and add an additional 3/4 c whole milk.

Cheese Filling:
In mixer, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth. Chill to firm the filling before using.

Sauce:
Combine all ingredients in a small pot over medium-high heat. Bring up to a low boil and stir gently until the berries break down and release their natural juices. The consistency should remain a bit chunky. It will thicken up when it cools down slightly.
