Have you ever had a cheese blintz? Blintzes are a Jewish rolled pancake filled with cheese or fruit. Traditionally, these are served hot and topped with sour cream. This is a make ahead casserole which is much easier than making individual blintzes. This casserole has a filling of cream cheese and ricotta cheese, sugar and vanilla. I serve this with a homemade blueberry sauce on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this for a brunch and it was a huge success (there were no leftovers). You can prepare this the night before and then put it in the oven the next morning. You can serve this hot or at room temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
