Baby Blintzes

"These muffin style crepe-less blintzes are great for a brunch or a cocktail party. The original recipe called for a combination of blueberries & raspberries, but I used just blueberries. I also messed up and used the firm, mozzarella like cheese...you need the Farmer's cheese that is more like a compressed dry cottage cheese or like an uncrumbled feta texture. I would recommend Friendship brand, which might be available in a store that carries kosher food or at Whole Foods."

  1. These were tasty and very easy to make. I think next time I will bake them a few minutes longer and maybe add another blueberry or two to each one. The cinnamon-sugar on top really added something special and I recommend using lots of it. :) I liked them best at room temperature. Thanks for the recipe Karen!
