Delicious Cheese Blintzes Recipes

DELICIOUS CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• 1. To make the crepes: Beat eggs, milk, salt and salad oil together. Stir in the flour. Heat a little butter or oil in a six inch skillet. Pour about 2 TBS of batter into the pan, tilting the pan to coat the entire bottom. Crepes should be very thin. Let the bottom brown a little, then carefully turn out onto a clean dishcloth or napkin. Continue making the pancakes/crepes until batter is used up. Spread 1 TBS of filling (recipe to follow) on the browned side of the crepe. Fold two sides over towards the center of the crepe. Gently roll up the crepe like a jelly roll. Fry the blintzes in butter or oil until evenly browned. You can also bake the blintzes on a well greased pan at 425 degrees until slightly browned. Makes about 18 blintzes.
• 2. Filling: Beat the cheese, egg, salt, vanilla wafers, and sugar together. If you don't like them sweetend you can omit the sugar and use bread crumbs instead of vanilla wafers. Serve with dollop of sour cream, fruit topping, sugar, or other toppings if desired.

CHEESE BLINTZES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a cookie sheet generously with non-stick cooking spray.
• Trim crusts from bread and roll the slices flat.
• In a small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon to make a mixture.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix softened cream cheese, milk and vanilla until smooth. Spread this mixture onto each slice of flattened bread. Roll each bread slice up. Dip bread/cream cheese rolls in melted butter, roll the blintzes immediately in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Cut rolls into 1 inch pieces. Arrange the blintzes on the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Serve with sour cream.

CHEESE BLINTZES II

Steps:

• Place the milk, whole eggs, salt, and flour into a blender. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling by beating together the cottage cheese, egg yolk, melted butter, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Melt some of the 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter and tilt the pan to completely coat with the batter. Cook until golden on the bottom, and no longer wet on the top, about 2 minutes per crepe. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of the filling near one edge of a crepe. Fold this side up towards the center, then fold the sides in. Fold the top over the filling, and place seam-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven 10 minutes, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and continue baking until lightly golden, about 5 minutes more.

CHEESE BLINTZES WITH BROILED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Crepes: Whisk the eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Whisk in the salt, granulated sugar, and flour. Set aside for 30 minutes.
• Set the oven to 200 degrees F. and put a platter in the oven to heat.
• Melt about 1/2 teaspoon of butter in a nonstick 8 to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. When it foams, pour or ladle in about 2 tablespoons of batter. Lift and swirl the pan so the batter coats the bottom. Replace the pan on the burner and cook just until set and the underside is lightly browned. Transfer to the warmed platter. Repeat until the batter is used up.
• Cheese Filling: Whip the cream until stiff and refrigerate. Mix the ricotta and cream cheese in a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer) until as smooth as possible (it will remain a bit grainy, from the ricotta). Add the sugar, vanilla, and zest and mix. Fold in the whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Broiled Pineapple: Mix the sugar, nuts, and butter. Sprinkle on top of the pineapple slices and broil.
• Remove the crepes from the oven. One by one, spread each crepe with the cheese filling and roll up like a cigar. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve with broiled pineapple.

SWEET CHEESE BLINTZES RECIPE (FILLED CREPE)

Steps:

• Prepare 12 large crepes about 10-12 inches in size.
• For the filling, combine the farmer's cheese, butter, sugar, and egg yolk. Stir the mixture until smooth.
• Place a dollop of the cheese filling on the bottom part of each crepe, leaving enough room on the edges for folding.
• Fold over both of the sides.
• Starting from the bottom, roll up the crepes and secure the filling inside.
• Keep the blintzes refrigerated until you're ready to serve them. Right before serving, warm them up on both sides in a skillet with butter over medium heat. Enjoy!

• For the cheese filling: Mix ricotta, cream cheese, eggs, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Spread evenly over the surface of a crepe. Tuck in ends and roll up. Cook in butter in a fry pan until brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.

• Mix cream cheese, raisins, sugar, egg yolks, lemon peel, vanilla extract, and cinnamon together in a bowl to make the filling. Place 2 to 3 teaspoons of filling on each blintz and roll up like a small burrito.
