Description

Swedish cream cheese crêpes are Swedish pancakes filled with cream cheese, cottage cheese, sugar, and vanilla and topped with a cooked blueberry sauce.

Ingredients

3 cups milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 cup confectioners sugar, or more to taste
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups blueberries
2 cups water, or as needed
1/2 cup white sugar, or more to taste
3 tablespoons cornstarch, or as needed
1 1/2 tablespoons cold water, or as needed
1/4 teaspoon butter, or more as needed

Directions

1 Combine milk, flour, eggs, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 2 tablespoons white sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cover batter with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight. Thin batter with water, mixing well, if it becomes too thick.
2 Combine cottage cheese, cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, and vanilla extract until well blended; the filling will not be smooth.
3 Place blueberries in a saucepan; cover with 2 cups water. Add 1/2 cup white sugar; cook over medium-high heat until starts to boil. Reduce heat; simmer to allow berries to release their juices, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste; add more sugar if desired. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes more.
4 Mix cornstarch with 1 1/2 tablespoons cold water in a bowl until dissolved. Off heat, slowly pour cornstarch slurry into blueberry mixture, stirring constantly until thickened.
5 Melt 1/4 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour enough batter into skillet to make an 8-inch pancake; cook until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip; cook until other side browned, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a plate; cool slightly. Add some filling to center of pancake; roll to enclose filling. Transfer to another plate; top with blueberry sauce. Repeat with the remaining batter, filling, and sauce.
