The origin of pancakes is lost in the mists of time, but they have certainly brought joy to the hearts of many generations. Now it's time to put on your apron and get to work!

Ingredients for pancakes (for 15-18 pancakes 16 cm in diameter):
- 300 g flour
- 250 ml milk
- 250 ml beer (a lager will add a nice touch)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 lemon essence (2 ml)
- 1/6 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons oil (for frying)

Ingredients for the filling:
- 170 g sweet cheese well drained of whey (cottage cheese is an excellent alternative)
- 3 tbsp heavy cream (20% or more)
- 2 tablespoons toasted sugar
- Grated zest of one small lemon
- 1 lemon essence (2 ml)

Step by step, let's start making these delicious pancakes!

Step 1: Prepare the pancake mix
Break the two eggs in a large bowl. Add a pinch of salt and mix well with a whisk or fork until fluffy. This is when you can add the sugar and lemon essence, which will give a nice flavor and a sweet-sour taste.

Add the milk and flour, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. It's important to be patient and mix well; a hand mixer can be a great ally for a smooth mixture.

Once you have a smooth mixture, add the beer. This will make the pancakes fluffier and lighter. Stir again and refrigerate for about an hour. This step is essential to allow the ingredients to combine perfectly and to achieve the ideal texture.

Step 2: Prepare the filling
While the pancake mixture is chilling, you can prepare the delicious filling. In a bowl, combine the well-drained sweet cheese, cream, sugar and grated lemon zest. Mix well until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is smooth. You can also use a mixer to obtain a creamy texture.

Step 3: Frying the pancakes
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little oil, swirling the pan to evenly coat the surface. Remove the pancake mixture from the fridge and thin with a little beer if necessary. Use a lad ladle to pour a thin layer of the pancake mixture into the pan, swirling the pan to get an even round shape.

Allow the pancake to fry until the surface is dry and the edges begin to pull away. Use a spatula or a quick stir to flip. Fry the other side until golden brown, then transfer the pancake to a platter.

Repeat the process for the rest of the mixture, taking care to add fresh oil to the pan if necessary.

Step 4: Assemble the pancakes
Now that all the pancakes are ready, it's time to fill them. Take each pancake and spread one half with the sweet cheese filling. You can choose to roll or fold them over, as you prefer. Place them on a platter and, if you like, sprinkle them with powdered sugar for an elegant look.
