Strawberry and Cream Cheese Crepes

This crepe recipe was easy and delicious. Next time I will double the recipe because it only made 6 crepes. I also have been searching for a recipe that would go toe-to-toe with IHOP's strawberry crepes. I made a light glaze to add on top of the crepe when it's put together (like IHOP).

Glaze:

1 tbsp. melted butter
1/4 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. almond flavor
1 tbsp. milk

Drizzle over the strawberries and top with whipped cream. Yummmm!!

Thank you for this recipe!! It's a keeper!

This recipe is amazing! So easy yet so good. I lost the recipe and went searching to find it, thankfully I did. It is extremely easy to follow and the first time I made them came out perfect, and every time since. I'm impressed because I've heard crepes were hard to make. Not with this recipe. I do add a drop of vanilla and maybe a little sugar but that's just me.
