Almond Creme Crepe Filling

Yay for crepes!

I have it in my mind that we will have a tradition of making crepes every Saturday morning…it has yet to happen, but I think there is a good chance when the babe is a little older. And when we’re in CT, away from family, with nothing else to do on a Saturday morning, because heaven knows we wont be going to visit my family!

Moving is starting to terrify me!!!

Where was I?

Oh ya, got a little sidetracked…

Almond Cream Filling

Ingredients

1 can sweetened condensed milk

1/3 C lemon juice

2 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. almond extract

1 pint whipping cream-whipped

Directions

Mix first 4 ingredients, then fold in whipping cream

Do NOT stir after folding

Cover and refrigerate

So easy right? And oh so good.

It was a crepe bar so everyone made their own. I mixed mine with a little brown sugar and added slices of banana. Loved it. I should have added sliced almonds on top. Next time.

*When I was making the filling all I could taste was the lemon when I tested it so I actually added 2 more tsp of almond extract. I think it just needed a little time to rest, time to let all the flavors combine, because the finished product was a little
too almond-y.

NEXT TIME:
Use 2 tsp almond extract
1tsp vanilla, if any

  I know! One of the rules of cooking/baking is reading the recipe all the way through...sometimes I forget! Duh. :)
