RFCJ RECIPE ARCHIVE
Posted by : Pamela Schiff Blintzes, Low-Fat Farmers or Cottage Cheese - dairy
Yield: filling for 12 blintzes 12 oz. Dry curd low-fat cottage cheese or farmer's cheese 1 Tbsp. Sugar Butter as needed Pour off any liquid from the top of the cottage cheese (if needed) and place in a small bowl and add the sugar. Mix well. Place a Tbsp of Cottage cheese/Farmer's cheese and sugar mixture into the center of the cooked side of the blintz (7" size). Fold the two sides over the filling, then turn the bottom up and over, and then the top up and over, like an envelope. Fill all 12 crepes. Saute the blintzes in approx. 1 Tbsp. of butter until golden brown in color on all sides. Add butter as needed. Or if you want, you can skip the cooking and serve right after you fill the blintzes, just take the crepe and turn it over so the cooked side is down, then fill as above.

Plus I sometimes add some fruit filling (blueberry usually) just to make it even better! Regards, Pam
