These are a take on the classic cheese blintze – fun to make and a huge crowd pleaser! I’ve served them at large parties and small family dinners alike, always with great results. The recipe makes quite a bit (about 100 2.5-ich pieces), and they freeze beautifully. Heat covered in the oven before serving.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 — (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 2 — egg yolks
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 loaves sliced white bread, crust removed
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted
- 1 Tbsp Cinnamon
- 1 cup Sugar
DIRECTIONS
- Beat together cream cheese, egg yolks, and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
- Roll bread slices as thinly as possible with a rolling pin. Spread with cream cheese mixture. Roll up and dip in melted butter. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze.
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Remove Mini Blini from freezer and cut each piece in half. Place on a baking sheet and bake 10 to 13 minutes or until heated through.
