Creamy Strawberry Crepes - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 eggs
    1 cup milk
    1 cup cold water
    2 tablespoons butter, melted
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    additional butter
    FILLING
    1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
    1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced, divided
    1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
Preparation
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, milk, water, butter and salt. Add flour, beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
    In an 8-in non stick skillet, melt 1 tsp butter, pour 2 tbsps of batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom.
    Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, adding butter to skillet as needed. When cool, stack the crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
    For filling, in a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, peel and vanilla until smooth. Fold in 2 cups of berries and whipped cream. Spoon about 1/3 cup filing down the center of 15 crepes; roll up. Garnish with the remaining berries. Freeze remaining crepes for another use.
