#1,710: Blintz Bake


This recipe got really great reviews on the Kraft website, but I have to admit, I thought it was just ok and not something I would be overly excited to make again.

The original recipe also doesn't say if you should eat this hot, warm or cold.  In my opinion, this was WAY better cold than it was hot.  I didn't like it hot at all.  It was simple to make, but as you can see from the photo below, you have to use just a little bit on the bottom otherwise it doesn't spread enough to completely cover the top.  Good, but I think there are other better breakfast foods to make.  

2 pkg. (8 oz. each) Neufchatel Cheese, softened
1 container (15 oz.) Natural Part Skim Ricotta Cheese
5 eggs, divided
3/4 cup sugar, divided
2 tsp. zest and 3 Tbsp. juice from 1 lemon
1 cup flour
3/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/4 cup milk
1 Tbsp. Baking Powder

Heat oven to 325°F.

Beat Neufchatel, ricotta, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup sugar, lemon zest and juice in large bowl with mixer until blended.

Whisk remaining eggs, sugar, flour, butter, milk and baking powder in separate bowl until blended. Spread 1/3 of the batter onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; cover with Neufchatel mixture, then remaining batter.


Bake 45 min. or until center is set.
