Ingredients:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 0.5 tsp lemon zest
  • 0.125 tsp fine sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Prep the cheese. Place your 8 oz of softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Beat it on medium high speed for 2 minutes until it looks like smooth, pale soft serve.
  2. Sift the sugar. Place your sieve over the bowl and add the 0.5 cup of powdered sugar. Shake it through until the powder is fine and cloud like.
  3. Add the aromatics. Pour in the 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tsp lemon juice, and add the 0.5 tsp lemon zest and 0.125 tsp sea salt.
  4. Incorporate slowly. Start your mixer on the lowest speed. This prevents a sugar cloud from covering your kitchen.
  5. Cream the base. Increase the speed to medium and beat until the mixture looks glossy and fully combined.
  6. Measure the yogurt. Get your 0.5 cup of Greek yogurt ready. Ensure it hasn't separated in the container; stir it first if it has.
  7. The gentle fold. Switch to your silicone spatula. Add the yogurt to the bowl and use a cutting and lifting motion to fold it in.
  8. Stop at the right time. Fold until you can no longer see white streaks of yogurt. Do not over mix, or the filling will lose its fluffy structure.
  9. Final Check. The filling should be thick enough to hold a soft peak on the spatula but spreadable enough for a delicate crepe.
