Blueberry-Mascarpone Crepes

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease a large glass baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat together the mascarpone, cream cheese, sugar, egg yolks, zest, juice, Grand Marnier, and salt until smooth.
  3. Place the crepes flat on a work surface.
  4. One at a time, spoon 2 tablespoons of the filling down the center, and top with a few fresh blueberries.
  5. Roll the sides of the crepe up and over the filling and place in the baking dish, seam side down.
  6. Bake until the filling is warmed through and slightly puffed, 10 minutes.
  7. Spoon the sauce over the crepes and return to the oven and hot, 2 to 4 minutes.
  8. Remove and arrange 3 crepes on each of 4 dessert plates.
  9. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.
  10. 1 1/2 cups sugar
  11. 1 1/2 cups water
  12. 1/2 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice
  13. 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  14. 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier liqueur
  15. 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
  16. 1 3/4 cups blueberries, picked over and rinsed
  17. 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  18. In a small saucepan combine the sugar, water, orange juice, cornstarch, Grand Marnier, and orange zest, and stir well.
  19. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  20. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
  21. Add the butter and remaining 1/4 cup of blueberries and stir until the butter is melted and the berries are warmed through, 1 minute.
  22. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm until ready to use.
  23. Yield: 3 cups
  24. 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  25. 3 large eggs, beaten
  26. 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons whole milk
  27. 1 tablespoon sugar
  28. Pinch salt
  29. 6 teaspoons melted unsalted butter
  30. Whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, salt, and 4 1/2 teaspoons of the butter to form a smooth, thin batter.
  31. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before proceeding.
  32. Heat a heavy 6-inch skillet or crepe pan over medium-high heat.
  33. When hot, brush with a light coating of the remaining butter.
  34. Ladle about 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the pan, tilting the skillet to evenly coat the pan with batter.
  35. Cook until golden brown on the bottom and the top begins to look dry, 1 to 2 minutes.
  36. Using a spatula, carefully turn the crepe and cook on the second side just until the bottom colors slightly, about 30 seconds.
  37. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely to keep warm.
  38. Repeat with remaining batter.
  39. Assemble as directed in Blueberry-Mascarpone Crepes recipe, and serve.
  40. (Or, make ahead and when cool, layer between sheets of waxed paper and wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
  41. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 3 days.)
  42. Yield: 12 (6-inch) crepes
