Steps:
- For the crepes, combine the milk, eggs, vanilla and melted butter in a blender and pulse. Add flour and powdered sugar and pulse until mixture is completely blended. Refrigerate mixture for 15 minutes to remove air bubbles.
- While the batter is chilling, combine the filling ingredients in a standing mixer or in a large bowl with a wooden spoon, being sure to break up the harder farmer cheese so that it is evenly distributed in the filling. Don't stress about any remaining chunks of farmer cheese as they will melt in the oven. Refrigerate while you make the crepes.
- To make the crepes heat an 8-inch non-stick pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, lightly brush it with melted butter. Pour ¼ cup of your batter into the middle of the pan and quickly rotate the pan to evenly coat the bottom. After about a minute the bottom of the crepe will be a nice brown color. Run a flexible spatula under the crepe and lay it flat on a plate - cooked side up. You can stack the rest of the crepes on each other this way.
- To make the blintzes, place a crepe cooked-side up and spoon 3-4 tablespoons of filling lengthwise in the middle of the crepe. Fold one long side of the crepe over the filling, then fold the two short sides in, and fold the remaining side over. Place the blintzes seam-side down in a baking dish for 30 minutes. At this point the blintzes can be wrapped and refrigerated up to a day in advance.
- While the blintzes chill, add the sliced rhubarb, orange juice and sugar into a medium pot and cover. Cook over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the rhubarb has softened, add the strawberries and continue cooking uncovered for another 5 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for an additional minute and remove from heat.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Fry the blintzes, two or three at a time, starting with the seam side down, until they are brown on both sides (about a minute per side) placing them side-by-side in a large casserole dish when done. Bake the blintzes in the dish for about 12 minutes to firm them up.
- Plate the blintzes, generously spoon the compote over them and dust with powdered sugar if you like.

Steps:
- The night before: Place the ricotta cheese from the filling ingredients into a strainer lined with cheesecloth placed on top of a bowl. Let the ricotta drain overnight in the refrigerator to remove excess liquid. Note-- this step is optional, it will help the filling to thicken so it won't be quite so soft and goopy in the center. Blend all of the blintz ingredients together using a food processor, blender, immersion blender or electric hand mixer. Consistency of the batter should be smooth (no lumps). Alternatively, you can use a fork to mix all ingredients together until the batter is smooth. Make sure you get rid of all the lumps.
- Warm up a nonstick skillet on medium heat until hot. The skillet is ready when a drop of water sizzles on the surface of the pan. If the water pops or jumps out of the pan, the skillet it too hot-let it cool slightly before starting. If the water sizzles, it's at the perfect temperature. Grease the entire surface of the hot pan generously with nonstick cooking oil spray (keep the oil spray away from gas stovetop flame).Pour the blintz batter by 1/3 cupfuls into the pan, then tilt the pan in a circular motion till the batter coats the entire bottom of the pan in a large, thin circular shape.
- Let each blintz cook for 60-75 seconds until the edges of the blintz brown and the bottom of the blintz is lightly golden. You can tell it's ready by touching the center of the pancake's surface-- it should be dry and slightly tacky to the touch. Do not flip the blintz to cook the other side. Use a spatula to take the blintz out of the pan and place it on a plate.
- Keep the blintzes separated by pieces of parchment paper, wax paper, or paper towels. This will help keep them from sticking together.When all of the blintzes are cooked, create your filling. Put all of the filling ingredients into a mixing bowl, then use a fork to mix them well. Filling should be well blended but slightly lumpy.
- Now you're going to stuff and wrap up your blintzes! Put 3 tbsp of filling on the lower part of the blintz, about an inch from the edge.
- Fold the lower edge of the blintz up over the filling.
- Fold the sides of the blintz inward, as though you're folding an envelope.
- Roll the blintz up and over the filling like a burrito, tucking the edges in as you roll.
- When the blintzes are stuffed and rolled, you are ready to fry them. Pour ¼ cup of vegetable oil into the skillet and heat over medium until hot. Do not let the oil turn brown or start smoking-if this happens, discard the oil and try again. Cook the blintzes in batches of 3--this will give you space to turn them easily in the pan. Carefully place the stuffed blintzes flap-side down into the hot oil. The blintzes should fry for 1 ½ to 2 minutes until they're brown and crispy.
- Turn the blintzes carefully using a spatula and/or tongs, then fry for an additional 1 ½ - 2 minutes. Blintzes should be evenly browned on both sides.
- Serve blintzes warm. They can be served as-is or topped with fruit topping, sour cream, applesauce, whipped cream or maple syrup.

Steps:
- Combine the cream cheese, 1/4 cup of the sugar, the matzo meal, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1-1/2 minutes. Add the farmer cheese and egg, and beat to combine, about 1 minute.
- Place about 2-1/2 Tbs. of the filling in the center of each crêpe. Fold the bottom of the crêpe up just enough to cover the filling. Flatten a bit, then fold both sides over the center. Fold the top of the crêpe down make a package. (At this point, blintzes can be refrigerated for a few days in a covered container before cooking and serving, or individually wrapped and frozen for longer storage; cook directly from the freezer.)
- To make the sauce, combine the frozen strawberries, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and vinegar in a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften and their juices thicken slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. Using an immersion blender or a food processor, process until smooth, about 1 minute.
- To cook the blintzes, heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Arrange the blintzes seam side down in the skillet, adding only as many as will comfortably fit without touching. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown on the second side, about 2 minutes more, then transfer to a serving platter. Cook the remaining blintzes, adding butter to the pan as needed. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with the strawberry sauce, fresh strawberries, and mint leaves.

STRAWBERRY BLINTZES RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:
- Combine the milk, water, eggs, flour, salt and sugar in a bowl (or blender) Blend on medium speed for 15 seconds, until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and pour in 3 tablespoons of melted butter. Blend it again for a second just to incorporate. Refrigerate the batter for 1 hour to let it rest. If the crepes are made immediately, they have a tendency to be rubbery; when you let the batter rest, the crepes have a better texture and a softer bite. CHEESE FILLING: In a food processor, combine the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, lemon zest, and egg and blend until smooth. Chill the filling to firm it up a bit so it doesn't squirt out of the blintzes. Put an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter for added assurance. SAUCE: Combine the strawberries, sugar, water, cornstarch, and zest in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir gently until the berries release their natural juices. The consistency should remain a bit chunky, it will thicken up when it cools down. CREPES: Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swirl it around so it covers the bottom evenly; pour back any excess. Cook for 30 to 45 seconds, until the crepe batter sets. Lightly bang the edge of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the crepe; then flip it and cook another 30 seconds. The art of flipping a crepe in the air takes practice, so make sure no one is looking when you get the first one going. If this intimidates you, use a heatproof rubber spatula to loosen and flip the crepe. The crepes should be pliable, not crisp, and lightly brown. Slide them onto a platter and continue making the crepes until all the batter is used. Cover the stack of crepes with a towel to keep them from drying out. ASSEMBLY: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Forming the blintzes is kind of like making burritos. Spoon 1/4 cup of the cheese filling along the lower third of the crepe. Fold the bottom edge away from you to just cover the filling; then fold the 2 sides in to the center. Roll the crepe away from you a couple of times to make a package, ending with the seam side down. Put an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Brush with melted butter. Set the blintzes into the pan, and brush lightly with melted butter. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10 minutes so the egg in the filling cooks slightly and the cheese sets. Using a spatula, transfer the blintzes to serving plates. OPTIONAL: Spoon the strawberry sauce on top, dust with confectioners' sugar, and serve right away.

FRUIT AND CHEESE BLINTZ OR BREAKFAST CREPES
One of my favorite breakfasts, easy and quick to make and they go fast! Some of my recommendations for a little twist (I mix and match!): -If you desire sweeter crepes, omit the salt and add 2 tablespoons sugar -Try spreading a little cream cheese before filling the crepes -Add 1/4 cup of fresh berries, your choice (corresponding to your yogurt flavor, I recommend strawberry, which should be thinly sliced) -Garnish with whipping cream is desired

Steps:
- Combine cottage cheese, yogurt and berries (optional) and set aside.
- Combine eggs, milk, flour, oil and salt, beat until well mixed.
- Heat a lightly greased 8 inch skillet to spread batter.
- Prepare squares of wax paper to transfer cooked crepes.
- Remove well heated skillet from heat and spoon in about 3-4 tablespoons of batter.
- Lift and tilt the skillet to evenly spread the batter around the pan.
- Return to heat and brown on one side.
- Invert over to waxed paper and remove crepe.
- Repeat with remaining batter, occasionally re-grease.
- Spoon 1/6 of filling into the middle of each prepared crepe and roll. This recipe produces thin rolls, adding optional fruit or additional fruit will make them more bulky. (Some times it's fun to lay out the crepes, the filling and other ingredients out, to create your own "fajita" style meal.).

Steps:
- Use an electric mixer to blend together all the crêpe ingredients (except the butter for the pan) in a large bowl. Blend just until smooth. The batter will be very thin.
- Combine the filling ingredients in a medium bowl and mix by hand. Keep the filling nearby.
- Preheat a 10-inch frying pan over medium heat. (This size pan tapers to about 8 inches at the bottom.) When the pan is hot, add about ½ teaspoon butter.
- When the butter has melted, pour 1/3 cup batter into the pan. Swirl the batter so that it entirely coats the bottom of the pan. Cook for 1½ to 2 minutes or until golden brown on one side.
- Use a spatula to lift an edge of the crêpe. Grab it with your finger, slip the spatula underneath, and quickly flip it over. Cook for another 1½ minutes or until a bit lighter shade of brown than the first side, and then slide it out of the pan. Repeat with the rest of the batter and stack the finished crepes on top of each other to keep them warm.
- Heat the cheese filling in the microwave for 1 to 2 minutes or until hot. When ready to fill the crêpes, place each crepe, dark side down, on a plate. Pour 2 to 3 Tablespoons of cheese filling across the center of the crêpe. Fold the sides in and turn the entire blintz over (to hide the seam) onto a serving plate.
- Serve 2 to 3 blintzes on each plate with one dollop of sour cream and two of strawberry preserves. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Steps:
- BLINTZES: Using a blender, mix the eggs, milk and flour at low speed. Add the Grand Marnier. Once the batter is well mixed and coats the spoon with a thin film, refrigerate, covered for 1 hour in a pitcher or bowl.
- Stir the batter thoroughly and before making the crepes, test the liquid by dunking a spoon in the mixture; again, it should coat the spoon with a thin film. Adjust by adding milk if necessary.
- Using a 8-10" nonstick pan, spray with oil, and heat the pan over medium-high heat. Pour about one cup of batter to coat one pan. Once covered, pour a thin layer of batter into the heated pan, swirling to coat if necessary.
- When the crepes pull away from the edge of the pan in about 20 seconds, remove from the heat, tap them lightly or run a knife across the edge of the pan to release, and invert the crepes on a dry towel to cool. Stir the batter at brief intervals to re-suspend the ingredients.
- FILLING: Mix together the ricotta, mascarpone, sugar, vanilla extract, lemon zest and a small pinch of salt.
- ASSEMBLY: With the cooked side up, spoon about 1/4 cup filling inside the center of the wrapper.
- Fold and hold the two opposite sides of the crepe over the filling until they almost meet and then fold over the ingredients pulling the stuffing toward you.
- Fold the crepe over until you form a seam on the blintz. Set finished 2-inch by 1 1/2-inch flat "eggroll" shaped blintz on a dry towel with the seam side down.
- COOK: Melt butter or margarine in a skillet over medium high heat, beginning with the seam side down. Saute each blintz until golden brown, carefully so the cheese does not escape.
- Flip the blintz onto the other side. Lower the flame and cook slowly, about 2 to 5 minutes to avoid burning the crepe.
- TOPPING: Gently toss the rhubarb, strawberries, flour, sugar and lemon and let stand until moist, 5 to 10 minutes.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter and add the fruit mixture. Cook the fruit for approximately 35 minutes, stirring to make sure the fruit does not brown. Cover 5 minutes or until rhubarb is soft.
- TO SERVE: Ladle the warm fruit over the blintz and top with a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with a fresh strawberry half.

- In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with the whisk attachment, add the milk, water, eggs, flour, sugar and salt. Whisk on medium until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps/flour pockets, about 30-60 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. With the mixer on the lowest setting, slowly add the melted butter in a steady stream stream, continue to mix until just incorporated. Transfer batter to medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour {or over night} before using.
- In the clean bowl of an electric stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese and ricotta and beat until on medium until smooth, about 30-60 seconds. Add the powdered sugar and egg and mix on medium until just combined and not lumpy, about 30-60 seconds. Transfer mixture to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour {or over night} before using.
- Preheat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter. Add a scant 1/4 cup of the crepe batter to the pan and swirl around to cover the bottom of the pan evenly, and pour any excess back into the bowl. Cook for 30-45 seconds, or until the crepe batter sets. Gently loosen the crepe and flip it with a rubber spatula, cook for 30 more seconds. The crepe should not be crisp, but flexible and light brown. Transfer the crepe to a plate and cover with a towel until ready to make into Blintzes. Repeat with the remaining crepe batter.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place a crepe on a clean surface and add 1/4 cup of the filling wit the lower third of the crepe. Fold like you would a burrito {see picture above} by folding up the bottom edge of the crepe on top of the filling; then fold in the 2 sides. Roll the crepe to make a little burrito with the seam facing down. Set aside and assemble the remaining Blintzes. Brush the Blintzes with butter and add them to an over-safe skillet over medium heat. Cook the Blintzes in the skillet for 2 minutes per side, or until golden and crisp {you may need to do this in batches depending on how big your skillet is}.

- To make the crêpes: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk all of the crêpe ingredients together to make a smooth batter., Place the batter in the refrigerator for 1 hour or longer, in order to relax the gluten., Heat an 8" (or slightly larger) crêpe or omelet pan until a drop of water skips across the pan.
- Lightly grease the pan, and pour a scant 1/4 cupful of batter into the middle., Tilt the pan and swirl the batter to completely coat the bottom with batter.
- Cook until the crêpe is opaque and set., Transfer the crêpes, "uncooked" side down, to a sheet pan or rack to cool.
- When you stack them, stack them "uncooked" side down, so that this side will be on the outside when you roll them., To make the ricotta filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until soft., Add the beaten egg a bit at a time, beating until smooth after each addition, and scraping the sides of the bowl often, Add the lemon zest or oil, vanilla extract, salt, and sugar, and mix until well-combined.

- Prepare the Batter. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and melted butter. Next, add the flour and salt; and mix well until smooth and no lumps remain.
- Make the Filling. While the batter chills, prepare the cheese filling. In a food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth. Then, add the softened cream cheese, sugar and vanilla and pulse until creamy.
- Cook the Blintzes. When the batter is ready, remove it from the fridge and heat a lightly greased eight-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Then quickly pour two tablespoons batter into the center of the hot skillet.
- Flip. Next, carefully flip the blintz over. For best results use a thin, flexible silicone or rubber spatula. (See which spatula our Test Kitchen loves).
- Allow Blintzes to Cool. Remove the cooked blintzes to a wire rack. Repeat step three with the remaining batter. When all the blintzes have been cooked, stack them with waxed paper, parchment or paper towels in between.
- Fill and Fold. When the blintzes have fully cooled, take a single blintz and spread about a heaping tablespoonful of filling onto the lower third of each blintz.
- Bake. When all the blintzes have been filled, bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10 minutes or until heated through.
- Make the Cherry Sauce. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring thawed frozen cherries and sugar to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for five minutes or until heated through.
- Serve. To serve, plate three or four warm blintzes on a plate and top with a few heaping spoonfuls of cherry sauce. Garnish with whipped cream or confectioners’ sugar, if desired, and enjoy.
