Tips To Perfect Strawberry Crepe Cookie Recipe

Use Fresh Ripe Strawberries

The secret to a bright and flavorful strawberry filling is using fresh, ripe strawberries. Choose in season for the best flavor. Fresh strawberries will balance out the richness of the crepe itself. If fresh strawberries are not available, you can use frozen but make sure to thaw and drain them well, so excess moisture doesn’t affect the filling’s texture.

Get The Crepe Batter Right

For a crepe that folds into a cookie, the batter needs to be thin and smooth. If the batter is too thick, just add a little more milk to thin it out. You want to achieve a consistency like heavy cream. When cooking uses a non-stick pan and don’t pour too much batter at once, this will make the crepes uneven and hard to fold. Keep the crepes thin and even for the best texture.

Try Crepe Fillings Beyond Strawberries

While strawberry filling is a classic, you can mix it up by adding other fillings. Try blending strawberries with whipped cream or Nutella for a more decadent treat. For citrus lovers, a lemon cream filling goes beautifully with strawberries and adds a nice zing. You can also mix the strawberries with a splash of balsamic vinegar for a sweet and savory combo for the adventurous.

Do Not Overfold The Crepes

Folding the crepes into cookies can be tricky if you fold too hard or too fast. Just be gentle when folding. Place the filling in the middle of the crepe and fold the edges over, so the filling doesn’t escape. A simple fold over is best but if you want to roll them, make sure they are sealed tight, so the filling doesn’t leak out while baking.

Do Not Over Sugar The Filling

When making the strawberry filling, balance the sugar. Strawberries themselves can vary in sweetness depending on ripeness so adjust the sugar accordingly. If you prefer your filling less sweet you can always reduce the sugar or substitute with a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup. Taste and adjust the sweetness until it’s balanced with the crepe’s flavor.

Add Vanilla For Extra Flavor

Adding a bit of vanilla extract in both the crepe batter and the strawberry filling will take your dessert to the next level. Vanilla adds a warm, cozy note that balances the sweetness of the strawberries and mellows out the crepe. It’s a small thing but makes a big difference.
