Blintzi - cheese pie

Preheat the oven to 170°C (325°F) to ensure even and perfect baking of the dish. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and eggs. Use an electric mixer to mix the ingredients well until smooth. It is important to pay attention to the texture of the dough, which will be very soft. Don't worry, this is a sign that the dish will be extremely fluffy in the end. Once you have a homogeneous mixture, gradually add the melted butter, continuing to mix. The rich taste of the butter will add a touch of finesse and an extra flavor.

Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a separate bowl, add the Philadelphia cream cheese along with the other filling ingredients. Use the mixer again to beat all the ingredients well until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous cream. This filling will add a delicious flavor and a creamy texture that will perfectly contrast with the fluffy dough.

After you have finished preparing the dough and filling, grease a rectangular baking dish measuring approximately 30 cm x 20 cm with butter. Pour the dough mixture into the dish, smoothing it out with a spatula to achieve an even base. Then, carefully add the Philadelphia cream filling on top of the dough, spreading it evenly to ensure a consistent taste in every slice.

Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 40 minutes. It is important not to open the oven door in the first 30 minutes to avoid affecting the baking process. After the baking time has elapsed, check if the dish is properly baked using a knife or toothpick; it should come out clean from the center of the cake.

Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let the dish cool completely. Once cooled, you can slice it and dust it with powdered sugar to give it an attractive appearance and extra sweetness. This recipe is not only simple but also a true indulgence for the taste buds, being extraordinarily fluffy and fine, perfect for any occasion or simply to enjoy a delicious dessert at home.
