Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 1 cup of sour cream, 1 cup of cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon of lemon zest, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sift 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined.
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter. Pour half of the batter into the prepared dish and spread it evenly.

Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes until lightly golden, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 12 blintzes.
- Place a blintz on top of the batter in the baking dish. Repeat until you have a layer of blintzes. Pour the remaining batter over the blintzes, spreading it evenly.
- Bake the blintz souffle II in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until puffed and golden brown on top.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Dust the blintz souffle II with powdered sugar.
