    Key lime juice turns cream cheese into the refreshing filling for these berry crepes. Sometimes, I even pipe the sweet filling into phyllo-dough cones that I bake separately. –Wolfgang Hanau of West Palm Beach, Florida

    Ingredients:
    • 3 tablespoons Key lime juice
    • 1 package (12.3 ounces) silken firm tofu, crumbled
    • 6 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed
    • 2/3 cup confectioners' sugar, divided
    • 2-1/2 teaspoons grated lime peel
    • Dash salt
    • Dash ground nutmeg
    • 6 prepared crepes (9 inches)
    • 1-1/2 cups fresh raspberries

    Directions:
    1. In a blender, combine the lime juice, tofu and cream cheese; cover and process until smooth. Set aside 1 teaspoon confectioners’ sugar. Add the lime peel, salt, nutmeg and remaining confectioners’ sugar to tofu mixture; cover and process until blended. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

    2. Spread cream cheese mixture over crepes. Sprinkle with raspberries; roll up. Dust with reserved confectioners' sugar.
