Ingredients

  • 30 crepes (double the recipe)
  • 4 cups strawberries diced
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 16 oz cream cheese softened at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 cups heavy whipping cream very cold
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawbrries for decor

Instructions

  • Prepare the crepes according to the recipe instructions (8-inch crepes work perfectly for this recipe). I like to make thicker crepes for this cake so that they hold up to the layers of cream and berries.

  • In a small saucepan, combine the diced strawberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes.

  • Transfer the cooked strawberries to a separate bowl or container and allow them to cool completely.

  • Place the cooled strawberry mixture in a mesh strainer or sieve and allow the juices to drain — you should get about 1 cup of juice. Set the strawberries aside.

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, and strawberry juice. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  • Add the heavy whipping cream and continue beating until the cream is fluffy. Keep an eye on the mixture to avoid over-mixing, as it may turn lumpy.

  • Start assembling the cake by placing a crepe, a layer of cream, another crepe, more cream, and cooked strawberries. I like the pattern of adding strawberries after every two crepes.

  • Decorate the outside of the cake with more cream and garnish the top with fresh strawberries. Allow the cake to thoroughly chill in the fridge, then enjoy!
