Red Velvet Crepes With Cheesecake Filling Recipes

RED VELVET CREPES WITH CREAM CHEESE FILLING

Steps:

• Combine eggs, milk, water, salt, sugar, vanilla, and 3 Tablespoons melted butter in a blender and pulse until foamy, about 30 seconds.
• Add flour and cocoa powder and pulse until smooth.
• Add the food dye at this time, if using. You will need to make the batter a little brighter than you want your final product to be.
• Refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes or overnight.
• When ready to prepare your crepes, heat 1 Tablespoon of butter in a crepe pan or other shallow frying pan. Ensure that the butter has coated the entire surface of the pan before adding 1/4 cup of crepe batter and swirling to cover the surface of the pan.
• Cook crepes one minute, flip carefully, and then cook other side for half a minute. (The edges will start to crisp and turn up slightly, but the surface won't get as bubbly as pancakes.)
• Repeat this process with remaining batter.
• To make the cream cheese filling, whisk the cream cheese filling ingredients (powdered icing sugar, cream cheese, milk and lemon juice) together, adding more or less milk to preference.
• Spoon the filling into a piping bag and pipe a straight line across each crepe before rolling.
• Garnish with chocolate sauce and leftover cream cheese filling.

CHEESECAKE-STUFFED RED VELVET COOKIES

Steps:

• Make the filling: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, sour cream and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the filling at a time onto the parchment so that you have 12 dollops. Freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
• Make the cookies: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl. Whisk together the granulated sugar, butter, buttermilk, food coloring, vanilla and eggs in another bowl. Fold the flour mixture into the sugar mixture with a rubber spatula until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes (it will still be soft).
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Coat your hands generously with confectioners' sugar and scoop a heaping tablespoon of the cookie dough into your hand. Put one of the frozen cream cheese dollops in the middle of the dough and place another tablespoon of the dough on top of the cream cheese. Shape the dough around it to completely enclose the cream cheese, and then roll to coat in the confectioners' sugar. Repeat with the remaining dough and cream cheese, coating your hands in confectioners' sugar as needed.
• Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake until the cookies are firm around the edges and can be easily lifted with a spatula, 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the trays for 10 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely.
