Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries, blackberries, and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the berries release their juices and start to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until completely dissolved. Pour the mixture into the saucepan with the berries and stir well.
Cook the berry mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Once thickened, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Allow the berry mixture to cool completely.
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Once the berry mixture has cooled, gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture. Be careful not to overmix; some streaks of berries are fine for a rustic look.
Use the filling immediately in crepes, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If chilled, let it come to room temperature before spreading in crepes.
