These are fairly simple to make, and once baked the real fun begins, as they can hold so many amazing fillings, both sweet and savory. The key is making sure your puff pastry dough is very firm, and very cold, preferably still partially frozen, before you start cutting it. You want nice clean cuts, because if you mash the layers of pastry together, your shells will not rise as high, and they can also bake into some strange shapes.

Swedish Cream Cheese Crepes
I call these Swedish cream cheese crêpes because I use a Swedish pancake instead of a regular crêpe. My entire family loves these. I have to make a huge batch every time I make them. These also refrigerate very well for 2 to 3 days. Sprinkle crêpes with confectioners' sugar before topping with berries, if you wish.
