👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. For the blintz batter, whisk together flour, eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, 3g of sugar, and 2g of melted butter until smooth; let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
2. Heat a lightly buttered non-stick pan over medium heat, pour a small amount of batter, and swirl to coat the bottom evenly; cook until edges are golden and set.
3. Carefully remove the blintz from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the finished blintzes on a plate.
4. For the filling, combine farmer's cheese, egg yolk, remaining 12g of sugar, a pinch of salt, and vanilla extract in a bowl; mix until well combined.
5. Place a spoonful of filling near one edge of each blintz, fold the sides over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a neat package.
6. Melt the remaining 8g of butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat; place the filled blintzes seam-side down and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
