Strawberry Cheesecake Crepes

By srumbel

Ready-to-use crêpes make this recipe a snap to put together. I particularly like Melissa’s brand crêpes as they are low in calories and taste as good as homemade. Look for them in the produce section of your local market.

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar substitute (or 3 packets)
• 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
• 1/4 cup light tub-style cream cheese
• 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar substitute (or 2 packets)
• 3/4 light whipped topping, thawed
• 8 (9-inch) crêpes
• Powdered sugar, for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

1. Reserve about 8 strawberry slices to use later for garnish. In a small bowl, mix together the remaining strawberries and sweetener.

2. Place the cottage cheese in the bowl of a food processor or blender and process until smooth.

3. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetener. Add the cottage cheese and mix well. Gently fold in the whipped topping.

4. To assemble the crêpes, place 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each crêpe. Top with 1/4 cup strawberries. Fold in half. Sprinkle the tops with the powdered sugar and a strawberry slice or two for garnish.
