Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 3 cups milk
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 2 cups water, or as needed
• 1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch, or as needed
• 1 cup confectioners sugar, or more to taste

• 0.5 cup white sugar, or more to taste

• 1.5 tablespoons cold water, or as needed
• 0.25 teaspoon butter, or more as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine milk, flour, eggs, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 2 tablespoons white sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cover batter with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight. Thin batter with water, mixing well, if it becomes too thick.

Step 2

Combine cottage cheese, cream cheese, confectioner's sugar, and vanilla extract until well blended; the filling will not be smooth.

Step 3

Place blueberries in a saucepan; cover with 2 cups water. Add 1/2 cup white sugar; cook over medium-high heat until starts to boil. Reduce heat; simmer to allow berries to release their juices, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste; add more sugar if desired. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes more.

Step 4

Mix cornstarch with 1 1/2 tablespoons cold water in a bowl until dissolved. Off heat, slowly pour cornstarch slurry into blueberry mixture, stirring constantly until thickened.

Step 5

Melt 1/4 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour enough batter into skillet to make an 8-inch pancake; cook until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip; cook until other side browned, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a plate; cool slightly. Add some filling to center of pancake; roll to enclose filling. Transfer to another plate; top with blueberry sauce. Repeat with the remaining batter, filling, and sauce.
