Strawberry Crepes

1/2 tsp salt
2 cups milk
2 TBS butter (melted)
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients. Beat with hand mixer until smooth. Lightly butter 6-8 inch skillet. Heat over medium heat until bubbly. For each crepe, pour scant 1/4 cup of the batter into skillet. Immediately rotate skillet until film covers bottom.
Cook until light brown. Run wide spatula around edge to loosen; turn and cook other side until light brown. Stake crepes, placing waxed paper between each; keep covered.
Spread filling and fresh strawberries over each warm crepe; roll up. sprinkle with powder sugar.


Filling

I've been scared to try crepes. Did it take you many tries to get them right?
