2BLEU'S CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• FILLING: Mix all ingredients, beating well until smooth. Cover and refrigerate to cool for 1 hour or overnight.
• CREPES: To a large (4 cup) pyrex measuring cup or a bowl, and using a hand mixer, add all crepe ingredients and mix well until it coats the spoons with a thin film. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Using a large nonstick pan, spray with oil, and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Stir the batter again, and pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the pan, swirling the pan to coat and thin out the crepe.
• When the crepes pull away from the edge of the pan in about 30 seconds, remove from the heat and run a spatula across the edge of the pan to release the crepe. Slide the crepe onto a sheet of parchment paper. Carefully lift the crepe and flip over (back) into the pan to cook the other side.
• Slide the crepe (again) onto a parchment paper, this time covering with another sheet so there will be parchment between each crepe. Repeat for remaining crepes, stirring the batter at brief intervals to re-suspend the ingredients. (stop here, cover crepes with plastic wrap and refrigerate if making overnight).
• ASSEMBLY: While remaining stacked, spoon about 1/4 cup of the chilled filling onto the center of the first crepe. Fold two opposite sides of the crepe over the filling until they almost meet and then fold over the opposite sides to seal. Set finished 'eggroll or burrito' shaped blintz aside on the parchment paper with the seam side down. Repeat for remaining blintzes.
• COOK: Melt about 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet over medium heat, beginning with the seam side down. Saute blintzes (about 3 per batch) 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown (watch for burning, adjust heat level if neccesary).
• Flip the blintzes carefully so as not to break break them up or allow the cheese to escape. Do in batches, adding more butter as needed. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and a dusting of powdered sugar.

CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• For batter: Combine flour, sugar and salt.
• Whisk in milk, a little at a time, and whisk in eggs until batter is smooth.
• In a 7 inch non-stick pan, melt butter over moderately-high heat.
• Half fill a ¼ cup measure with the batter and, off the heat, pour the batter into the pan.
• Tilt and rotate pan quickly so that batter covers bottom in a thin layer and return any excess back into the bowl.
• Return pan to heat, loosen edge of blintz with a spatula, and cook until underside is browned lightly.
• Turn and brown other side.
• Repeat, using up all of batter.
• For filling: Combine farmer’s cheese, cream cheese and yolks until almost smooth and beat in sugar, salt, vanilla and lemon zest.
• Spoon 2 tblsps of filling onto blintz; fold in 2 sides and roll up to enclose filling.
• Put seam side down on a baking sheet.
• Repeat, using up all of crepes and filling.
• (blintzes can be made ahead and frozen at this point. Thaw and proceed with recipe.) In each of 2 large skillets, melt 2 tblsps of the butter over moderately-high heat, add blintzes and cook for 2 minutes.
• Turn carefully and cook until golden and heated through.
• Transfer to a heated platter and serve with sour cream and cherry preserves.

GRANDMA'S CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• Prepare cheese filling by mixing cheese in mixer until smooth. One at a time, add cream cheese, egg yolks, butter, sugar and salt. Beat well and set aside.
• Beat eggs in a blender, then add milk and blend. Remove blender lid and stir in flour and salt slowly until batter is smooth.
• Heat 6 inch skillet on stove. Once hot, lightly brush with melted butter.
• Pour only enough batter to make a very thin pancake into the frying pan, tipping it from side to side until the batter covers the bottom. Pour off excess batter back into blender as soon as the batter begins to set (pancakes should be as thin as possible while still covering the bottom of the pan).
• Fry one side until the edges begin to pull away from the pan and are slightly browned. Turn pan over and drop crepe onto dishcloth.
• Brush pan with butter before each crepe and repeat until the crepe batter is gone.
• IMPORTANT: Do not place crepes on top of each other until they are completely cooled. You will want plenty of counter space to spread out the cooling crepes as you continue making additional crepes.
• After crepes are finished, spread them out and place a rounded spoonful of filling in the center of each crepe.
• Fold both sides in and roll into an envelope shape. They should be slightly flattened rather than round.
• TIP: Crepes can be refrigerated or frozen at this point.
• Before serving: fry blintzes in butter in frying pan, turning to lightly brown on both sides. Place in one layer on cookie sheet or jellyroll pan and heat at 200 degrees for 15 minutes. Do not overheat or cheese will get stringy.
• Serve with cinnamon/sugar, sour cream or jelly.

CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• Crêpe Batter:.
• Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a bowl and set aside. Combine the egg, milk, butter and vanilla extract in another bowl and stir until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until blended into a relatively smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. (The batter may be prepared to this point and stored in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours.).
• Heat a crêpe pan or small skillet over medium heat. Brush the pan with melted butter. Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into the crêpe pan, swirling and tilting the pan to coat the bottom. Cook (reducing the heat if necessary) until the first side is set and has a little color, about 2 minutes. Use a thin metal or heatproof rubber spatula to loosen the crêpe and turn it over. Cook on the other side until set and very lightly colored (the crêpe will not be as dark on the second side as on the first), 1 minute more. Stack the crêpes between layers of parchment or waxed paper as you cook.
• Cheese Filling:.
• Purée the cottage cheese and cream cheese in a blender until very smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the sugar, egg and vanilla extract by hand. Keep refrigerated until you are ready to finish the crêpes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly brush a medium baking dish with melted butter.
• Spoon or pipe about 2 tablespoons of the cheese filling onto each crêpe. Fold each crêpe into quarters, or fold the sides in to the center, then roll each crêpe up. Place the crêpes seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with melted butter and bake until very hot, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Serve immediately, 2 crêpes per serving, with fruit or compote.
