Strawberry Blintzes

I just harvested some strawberries from my garden and was trying to think of a meal/dessert I could use them in and remembered how tasty blintzes were.  Here is the recipe:

Strawberry Blintzes consist of 3 parts...the crepe, the cheese filling, and the strawberry sauce.

Crepes:

• 1 c flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 c milk
• 2 T butter (melted)

1. Whisk all of the ingredients together, making sure there are no lumps.
2. Pour 1/4 c of the mixture into a lightly buttered frying pan on medium heat.
3. Flip after approx. 30 seconds.

Cheese Filling:

• 1 1/2 c cottage cheese
• 4 oz. cream cheese
• 1/4 c sugar
• 1 t lemon juice

Mix all ingredients together.

Strawberry Sauce:

• 2 c strawberries
• 2 T sugar (or maple syrup)
• 2 T water
• 1/2 t cornstarch

Simmer for 3-5 minutes.

Assembling the Blintzes:

1. Pour 1/4 c of the cheese mixture in the middle of the crepe.
2. Wrap it as you would a burrito and place it in a lightly buttered frying pan with the seam side down.
3. Cook for a couple minutes on each side, until golden brown.
4. Pour strawberry sauce on top and enjoy.

Serves 4.
