Oh my! Those crepes look gorgeous and I could really go for one now! Yum!
copied this off for my mom in law. She had something just like this in the Smoky Mountains on a holiday once with a beautiful seasonal blackberry compote served on top. She loved it so much she ate it every day she and my dad were there!!! She’s been wanting to know how they were done for years, and I am certain this is the ticket. Blackberries are still sweet and in season, and I can’t wait to try these with her!
Hi Jen,
Thanks for your comment. Hope the recipe is a hit!
Oh, yum! These were exactly what I was craving and required only what I happened to have on hand… perfect! Thank you!
I was wondering if you could help me. My ex’s hungarian mother use to make these for us all the time but I have lost touch with them and my kids really want me to make them for them. I can make the crepes and I can make the ones with chocolate powder and sugar in them. The recipe I am looking for has cream cheese, lemon rind, sugar, raisins and eggs. I don’t know if that combination has to be cooked because I have a hard time thinking it’s raw eggs so if you have the recipe and could send it to my email I would greatly appreciate as I have looked everywhere for it. Thank you!!!!

Hi there. I like this sweet cheese filling one. But the one my ex’s mother use to make for me had cream cheese, sugar, lemon rind, raisins and eggs. My concern is this recipe cooked or is it raw eggs and how much of each ingredient? So if anyone knows of this recipe and can give me a step by step on how to malke it I would greatly appreciate it. I know how to make the crepes and I also know how to make the one with chocolate powder and sugar by I am dying for this recipe. I always loved it when she made it for me but I can’t seem to find the recipe anywhere. Thanks for any help!!!
You can make the cream cheese filling for pancakes, by using either ricotta (which is like hungarian turo cheese) or usiung marscapone (my personal favourite). You mix a tub of the cheese (about 300g) with the yolk of two eggs, icing sugar (to taste), the zest of one lemon and some pre soaked raisins. No cooking involved, and it’s so yummy.
Hello I take 3 lb. Cream Cheese, 12 oz. Sugar, 6 oz. Cornstarch, zest of one lemon and one orange
8 oz. Eggs (hold back some) and 1 Tablespoon of vanilla (or flavor of choice).
Cream together the cream cheese, sugar and cornstarch and zests and flavoring until light and smooth.
Add the eggs gradually (one at a time) scraping down mix until fully blended.
I had pierogi from a deli in Cleveland with a filling like this. Recently, I learned how to make pierogi and wanted to be able to make that variety in addition to the standard potato/cheese, and this was PERFECT! Thank you!
