--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                        For wrapper batter
   3      large         eggs
     1/4  cup           water
     1/4  cup           milk
     1/2  teaspoon      baking powder
     1/2  cup           all-purpose flour
   1 1/2  teaspoons     sugar
   1      tablespoon    unsalted butter
                        For filling
   1 1/2  cups          farmer cheese
   2      cups          cottage cheese
     1/4  cup           sugar
   1 1/2  teaspoons     cinnamon
   1      tablespoon    all-purpose flour

Make wrapper batter:
In a blender blend wrapper batter ingredients and let stand 30 minutes.
n an 8-inch skillet, preferable non-stick, melt half of butter over
moderately high heat. Pour in enough batter to just coat the bottom of
skillet, swirling, and cook, undisturbed, until top is set and bottom in
golden (do not turn wrapper over). Transfer wrapper to paper towels in one
layer, golden side down. Make more wrappers with remaining butter and
batter.
Make filling:
In a food processor, blend cheeses, sugar, and cinnamon until smooth. If
necessary, add flour to thicken filling.
Preheat oven to 250¡F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Put 3 tablespoons filling in center of each wrapper and fold opposite sides
of wrapper over filling until sides barely touch. Fold in ends to completely
enclose filling, forming packets, and arrange, seams sides down, on baking
sheet. Make more blintzes with remaining filling and wrappers. Bake
blintzes, covered loosely with foil, until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.

Makes 10 blintzes.
