Happy Easter!

Happy Monday everyone! I'm sure everyone is gearing up for a wonderful Easter weekend spent with family and friends. No matter if you are having a cook-out, egg hunts, or just sitting back and relaxing for a few hours we hope you enjoy yourselves!

I wanted to share with you all what Blaise and I made with the Diamond S whipping cream. Saturday morning we decided homemade crepes would be delicious and what better to use the cream on! We whipped the cream until it was thick and let me tell you, it whipped so much better and quicker than anything I've ever bought from the store. Usually I have to stand there for 10 minutes until the store bought cream is thick enough. The Diamond S cream thickened right up in less than 5 minutes. I have a major sweet tooth so we sweetened it with some sugar and you could do the same with your sweetener of choice or just leave it unsweetened, which ever you like. Here is the crepe recipe we used:

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all the ingredients until smooth.
   
2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
3. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, flip and cook the other side.
4. Remove from griddle and add your filling of choice - we filled one crepe with strawberries, raspberries, whipped cream and topped it with some syrup. The other crepe was filled with cinnamon brown sugar and whipped cream and also topped with syrup. Really any filling will work!
   
5. Serve hot and enjoy

Let us know what you use the whipping cream for, we'd love to hear all about it!
