- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Filling:
- 1/2 cup prepared Instant Mashed Idaho Potatoes

Directions:
- To make crepes sift together flour, sugar and salt. Add eggs and milk, stirring until batter is smooth. Mix in melted butter. Refrigerate for a minimum or 2 hours. Prepare filling by combining potatoes, cottage cheese, eggs and sour cream. Mix in sugar, salt, lemon rind, vanilla extract; blend well. Stir in raisins; set aside.
- In a small frying pan, melt 2 teaspoons of butter over medium heat. When it begins to bubble, pour in 3 tablespoons of batter. Tip the pan and let batter cover the surface. Cook for about 2 minutes or until the pancake is brown underneath. Remove cooked side down to a plate covered with waxed paper. Lightly butter pan before cooking each crepe.
- To fill pancakes place 2 tablespoons of filling on browned side of each crepe. Fold all sides over the filling to make a rectangular envelope-like blintz. Fry in melted butter until golden brown. Serve with sour cream and raspberry jam.
