Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 2 cups of milk, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter until smooth. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a non-stick crepe pan or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting to coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift, then flip it and cook for another 30-60 seconds. Stack the cooked crepes on a plate.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup of mascarpone (or cream cheese), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whip the mixture until soft peaks form.
  4. Take one cooked crepe and place it on a plate. Spoon a generous dollop of the vanilla cream filling onto one half, topping it with fresh raspberries. Fold or roll the crepe.
  5. Dust the crepes lightly with powdered sugar and serve immediately to enjoy their freshness.

Notes

Allowing the batter to rest ensures a smoother texture, making crepes lighter. Serve fresh to maintain crunchiness of raspberries.
