Posts: 5,600 Member
Ingredients:
1 (9") Melissa’s Crepe; halved (or another ready-to-use dessert crepe**)
3 tbsp. fat-free cottage cheese
1 tbsp. fat-free cream cheese; softened
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. Splenda, Granular (or half of any no-calorie sweetener packet)
dash of cinnamon
4 spritzes zero-calorie-per-serving butter spray (such as I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter! Spray)
Directions:
In a small bowl mix cheeses, sweetener, vanilla and cinnamon until creamy and well blended (aim to eliminate any lumps in the cottage cheese). Place half of mixture in the center of each of the two crepe-halves. Carefully fold crepes up envelope-style (sides first), ensuring that there is nowhere for the cheese mixture to ooze out. Bring a pan to medium-low heat, and spray it twice evenly with butter spray. Place blintzes on pan with the seam-sides down. Spray the top of each blintz once with butter from 6 inches away. After one minute, gently turn blintzes over in the pan. Remove pan from heat after 30 seconds, and carefully remove and plate blintzes. Enjoy exactly as is, or top with some sugar-free syrup, fresh fruit and/or fat-free whipped topping!
