Delicious Cheese Blintzes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 16 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Oil for frying
  • Fresh fruit or syrup for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until smooth. Stir in the melted butter. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes.
  2. While the batter rests, prepare the filling. In another bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and set aside.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling it to evenly coat the bottom. Cook until the edges begin to set and the bottom is lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Carefully flip the crepe and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then transfer it to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes on a plate.
  5. Once all crepes are cooked, place a spoonful of the cheese filling onto the center of each crepe. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly to enclose the filling.
  6. In the same skillet, add a little oil and heat over medium-low. Place the blintzes seam-side down in the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  7. Serve warm with fresh fruit, syrup, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy the delightful flavors of these homemade Cheese Blintzes!
