Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 6

Ingredients

1 8-ounce container mascarpone cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
9 tablespoons strawberry preserves
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature
Nonstick vegetable oil spray

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir first 3 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Cover mascarpone cream; chill.

    Step 2

    Stir strawberry preserves in heavy small saucepan over low heat until melted. Spread 1/2 tablespoon preserves over 1 side of each crepe. Fold crepes in half, enclosing preserves. Fold crepes in half again, forming triangles.

    Step 3

    Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Spread butter over both sides of crepes. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over both sides of crepes. Transfer to baking sheet. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover crepes and refrigerate. Keep mascarpone cream refrigerated.)

    Step 4

    Preheat oven to 200°F. Spray large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add 6 crepes to skillet. Sauté until sugar begins to caramelize, about 45 seconds per side. Transfer crepes to another baking sheet; keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining crepes, wiping skillet and spraying with vegetable oil spray before each batch.

    Step 5

    Arrange 3 crepes on each plate. Spoon Fresh strawberry marmalade over crepes. Spoon dollops of mascarpone cream atop marmalade and serve.
