A traditional Jewish blintz souffle is a delicious and decadent dish that is perfect for any special occasion. It is a variation of the classic blintz, a thin, crepe-like pancake that is typically filled with cheese or fruit and served as a dessert or breakfast dish.
To make a blintz souffle, the blintzes are baked in a custard-like mixture made with eggs, milk, and sour cream. The result is a rich and creamy dish that everyone loves.
Blintz souffle is a perfect dish to serve for brunch, as it can be made ahead of time and then reheated just before serving. It can easily be made with store bought blintzes of any variety, but we made ours with our new favorite chocolate tahini blintzes and topped it with some shaved chocolate.
