My mother is a wonderful cook who always likes to prepare (and improve on!) dishes she's sampled at restaurants. That's what I did with these blintzes, and my family loves my fruity version even more than the original.

Ingredients

  • BLINTZES:
  • 9 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups 2% milk
  • FILLING:
  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • Pureed raspberries or strawberries
  • Whipped cream, optional
  • Optional: Fresh raspberries or strawberries

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add flour, cornstarch and salt; stir until smooth. Stir in milk.
  2. Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet; pour 1/3 cup batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Keep in a warm oven, covered with foil. Repeat with remaining batter.
  3. For filling, in a small bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Place about 2 tablespoons in the center of each blintz; overlap sides and ends on top of filling. Place folded side down. Serve with pureed berries; garnish with whipped cream and fresh berries if desired.
