How to Make Cheese Blintzes With Blueberry Sauce

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 16 oz (450g) cottage cheese, 16 oz (450g) cream cheese, 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. Prepare your blintz batter according to your preferred recipe. (A quick search for 'basic blintz batter recipe' will provide numerous options.)
  3. Cook blintzes according to batter recipe instructions. Set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the blueberry sauce: Combine 2 cups (250g) fresh or frozen blueberries, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tbsp cornstarch in a saucepan.
  5. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Remove from heat and let cool completely. If using fresh blueberries, stir in a teaspoon of lemon zest for an extra pop of flavor.
  7. Spoon a generous amount of the cheese filling onto each blintz. Fold in the sides and then roll up tightly.
  8. Serve the blintzes warm or at room temperature, topped with the chilled or slightly warm blueberry sauce. Garnish with fresh blueberries or a sprinkle of powdered sugar (optional).
