Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheese Blintz Souffle.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). This will ensure your souffle bakes evenly and rises beautifully. Next, grab a 9x13 inch baking dish and place the butter inside. Pop it into the oven for about 3 minutes, just until it melts into a golden pool of goodness.
Step 2
Once the butter is melted, carefully take the baking dish out of the oven. Now, it’s time to lay the frozen cheese-filled blintzes in a single layer over that luscious melted butter. This will create a delicious base for your souffle.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks. This should take about 5 minutes. Set them aside for now; they’ll add that airy texture we’re aiming for.
Step 4
In another large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This is where the magic begins!
Step 5
Gently fold in one-third of the whipped egg whites into the sour cream mixture using a rubber spatula or a wire whisk. Be careful to run the spatula through the center and around the sides of the bowl, repeating until everything is well combined. This step is crucial for keeping the mixture light and fluffy.
Step 6
Now, add the remaining whipped egg whites, folding them in just until incorporated. You want to maintain that airy texture, so be gentle!
Step 7
Pour this delightful mixture over the blintzes in the baking dish, ensuring they are well covered. It’s going to look amazing!
Step 8
Finally, place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the eggs are set, puffy, and the top is a beautiful golden brown. The aroma will be irresistible!
