From George Hirsch Living it UP! TV series

2 cups mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries)
¼ cup raspberry jam
1 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 Tablespoons butter, melted
2-3 drops vanilla extract
2 egg whites
1 Tablespoon granulated cane sugar
Confectioners’ sugar
1/2 cup Fresh whipped cream
8 Fresh mint leaves
Place the flour and salt in a medium bowl and slowly add the milk and egg yolks, using a whisk to avoid lumps. Stir in the cream, melted butter, and vanilla.
Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Right before making the crepes, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites in to the flour mixture.
Preheat a 6-inch nonstick skillet & spray with vegetable spray. When the pan is very hot, pour in 2 Tablespoons of the batter and swirl it around. Cook 1 minute, turn and cook another minute on the other side. Remove and set aside.
Continue making crepes with remaining batter.
Spread two teaspoon of raspberry jam in the middle of each crepe, add a few mixed berries.
Roll up and sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar.
Serve two crepes per serving with a dollop of fresh whipped cream and top off the crepes with the fresh mint leaves.
