These Crepes With Cream Cheese Crepe Filling are the European crepes we call Nalisniki (crepe pronunciation in Ukrainian.) It is the best crepe recipe! I teach you how to make crepes at home using simple equipment and easy ingredients to make silky thin crepes that melt in your mouth!

📝 Ingredients

  • 1 liter milk
  • 10 eggs
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 48 oz cottage cheese ((rinsed and drained))
  • 16 oz cream cheese ((softened))
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4 oz butter ((melted) )

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1--- How to make Crepes: ---
  2. 2Pre-heat a crepe pan over low heat. Meanwhile, beat together the eggs and flour until most of the flour clumps are gone. Gradually add milk over low speed until mixture smooths out. Beat in the remaining ingredients.
  3. 3Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pre-heated pan and quickly tilt and shake side to side for the batter to spread evenly. Cook until edges slightly crisp and flip over. Cook an additional 45 seconds before removing. Stack and repeat.
  4. 4Beat all the filling ingredients, except the butter. Spread a thin layer of the cheese filling over the crepe and then rollup.
  5. 5Stack into a greased 9x13 pan and brush with a generous amount of melted butter between each layer. Cover and bake in a pre-heated 350°F oven for 25-30 minutes. Slice in half before serving.
