"Mom's Cheese Blintzes...a party favorite! These blintzes can be made ahead and frozen in an airtight container. Do not thaw them before baking!"

Ingredients:

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf white bread
  • 4 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 pint sour cream

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a cookie sheet generously with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Trim crusts from bread and roll the slices flat.
  3.  In a small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon to make a mixture.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, mix softened cream cheese, milk and vanilla until smooth. Spread this mixture onto each slice of flattened bread. Roll each bread slice up. Dip bread/cream cheese rolls in melted butter, roll the blintzes immediately in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Cut rolls into 1 inch pieces. Arrange the blintzes on the prepared cookie sheet.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes. Serve with sour cream.
