Blintzes: Beat eggs and warm milk. Add salt and butter. Add flour, slowly. Beat on top speed for 1 minute. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Method for making crepes. The first crepe is the trial one to test out the consistency of your batter, the exact amount you will need for the pan, and the heat. Batter should be the consistency of light cream, just thick enough to coat a wooden spoon. Your crepe should be about 1/16" thick. If, after making your 1st crepe, the batter seems too heavy, beat in a little water, a spoonful at a time.
Use an iron skillet or crepe pan. Brush the skillet lightly with oil. Set on moderate heat and heat the pan until it is just beginning to smoke. Immediately, remove pan from heat and holding the pan in your right hand, pour with your left hand 1/4 c batter into the middle of the pan. Quickly tilt the pan in all directions to run the batter all over the bottom of the pan in a thin film. Pour any batter that doesn't adhere to the pan back into the bowl of batter. Whole operation takes 3 seconds
Return the pan back to heat for 60-80 seconds. Jerk and toss the pan sharply back and forth and up and down to loosen the crepe. Lift its edges with a spatula and once the underside is nicely brown, the crepe is ready to turn over. Turn the crepe over and brown lightly for 30 seconds. This second side is rarely more than a spotty brown, and is kept as the underneath or nonpublic aspect of the crepe.
Filling: Mix filling ingredients and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Put one Tbsp of filling in each blintz and roll up. Put into buttered pan. When the pan is full, mix melted butter and Half&Half together, then pour over blintzes. Bake at 300 degrees, until it bubbles*. Serve with Sour Cream an/or Jam.
Note: * This is my Great-Grandmother's recipe that I love to eat, but have never made myself. When I make these, I will add the approximate bake time.
