Crepes!

So my husband went out on a whim for Easter and decided to make a carrot cake. But not just any carrot cake. He made a mango-infused carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. I took a leftover portion to work as a sample and boy, did we get big praises! The cake was a hit at his sister's house on Easter, which is what we were going for. He came home with an empty cake stand. Just what I like to see. :]

So we have a good portion of leftover cream cheese frosting that I keep dipping a kids' size spoon into. So I figured instead of being a double dipper, I'd just make something to eat the frosting with. So I've set my sights on making crepes for me and a special little three-year-old girl for lunch today. I can't wait to let you know how it turns out!!

-UPDATE-

The crepes with leftover cream cheese frosting were a BIG hit. I've made them a few times since first posting and oh-my-stars were they good!

Sadly, I do not have any pictures. So, this will be a picture-less post. And that saddens me a bit.

In my family, we LOVE pancakes. And french toast. And eggs with toast. And cheese. And cereal. Cereal gets us through some bad times. So making crepes fit in was not that hard. They're the perfect mix between the french toast taste (egg-y) and the disc shape of pancakes. Crepes, though, are a bit more versatile. We've had them with mostly cream cheese frosting, but I've decided that Greek God's yogurt would be pretty delish, too. And I'm not a yogurt fan. So that says something.

Once I'm prepared and I make another batch of crepes, I will post the recipe. Along with pictures. :]
