Croatian Cheese Palachinkas Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Batter: Beat eggs and sugar together, add salt.
• 2. Add 1 cup of flour alternating with milk until you use all, then add butter mixing well..
• 3. Using a dipper, fry each Palachinka in a hot 7-8" skillet. Tilt the skillet covering the bottom until batter is evenly distributed. I get appx. 20 Palachinkas with this recipe. Fry till just dry on the top and turn over and fry for another 30 seconds. Stack them on a plate.
• 4. When all done frying them, put 2 heaping tablespoons of filling on each, roll up and put side by side in a 9x13" pan.
• 5. Filling: Mix cottage cheese with cup sugar, add 2 beaten eggs, dash salt, melted butter and vanilla. I stir well with a fork.
• 6. Place 2 heaping tablespoons of filling onto each palachinka and roll up, place side by side in a 9x13" pan. Spread with sour cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake in a 350* oven for 30 minutes. When done you can serve with fruit, applesauce or eat them just as is.
• 7. Note: you can make the palachinkas and fill with cream cheese whipped with powder sugar to taste, then put pie filling or homemade fruit sauce on top.

Steps:

• Beat milk, eggs, flour, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a large mixing bowl until the batter is thin and without lumps.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and grease with 1 tablespoon canola oil. Ladle enough batter into the skillet to cover the cooking surface in a thin layer. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a large turner and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes more.
• Remove cooked palacinky to a plate and roll into a log.

Steps:

• First you will make the filling.
• Mix 2 48 oz. (large) small curd cottage cheese, 1 cup sugar, 1 8 oz. Philadelphia Cream Cheese, and 8 egg yolks together to make the filling.
• Next you will make the batter.
• Beat 5 eggs until frothy.
• Add in 1 quart milk (slowly).
• Pour in 1 cup sugar.
• Add 2 3/4 cups flour.
• Grease 9-inch frying pan with butter.
• Pour 1/2 cup batter into heated 9-inch frying pan and make a thin pancake (Crépe). This will cook quickly.
• Next you will construct the crépes and fill them.
• Fill crépes with the filling carefully. You don't want too little filling and you don't want too much. I suggest anywhere from 1/2 to 3/4 cups filling.
• Roll the crépe carefully so as not to spill any filling.
• Place crépes in glass pan for cooking.
• Now add topping.
• Combine 16 oz. sour cream, 1 cup sugar, 4 egg whites, and 1 egg.
• Mix and pour over rolled crépes.
• Finally you will cook and chill.
• Cook for 1 hour at 350°F.
• Once done, chill for about 1 hour or until cold. If it happens to be winter, it works well to wrap the pan in foil and put on a table.
