• 3 1/2 cups Flour
• 4 Eggs
• 2 cups Milk
• 2 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare Batter - using Electric Mixer, whisk together Eggs, Water, Milk, Salt, Sugar and Oil. Gradually add Flour and mix until smooth. Should have consistency of Heavy Cream.

2. 2

   Cook Crepes - grease a non-stick frying pan and heat over medium heat. Pour about ⅓ cup of Batter into hot pan, swirling around to create thin layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes until edges start to curl, and flip over and cook for another 30 seconds. Stack crepes on plate, coating each one in butter to prevent sticking.

3. 3

   Prepare Cheese Filling - combine Farmers Cheese, Salt, Sugar and Egg. Stir until blended. Adjust sweetness if needed.

4. 4

   Assemble Blintzes - lay 1 Crepe flat on surface. Spoon 2 tablespoons of Cheese Filling on the bottom edge of Crepe. Fold bottom edge over the Filling, tuck sides in and roll into a Cheese Blintz like a Burrito. Place in baking dish.

5. 5

   Fill Baking Dish - continue making Cheese Blintzes until tray is full. Can make 2 smaller Baking Dishes and freeze one for later.

6. 6

   Pour Cream - sprinkle about ½ cup of Sugar over Cheese Blintzes. Pour Heavy Cream until they are covered.

7. 7

   Bake - place in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C). Bake for about 25-30 minutes until it starts to bubble and Cream is absorbed into the Blintzes.
