Whether you prefer them with chocolate, jam, or cheese, today we present a less common yet equally delicious option: pancakes filled with cottage cheese and a splash of whiskey cream.

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Baking time: 15 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Number of servings: 8 pancakes

Ingredients for pancakes:
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup sparkling water
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt

Ingredients for filling:
- 300 g cottage cheese
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons whiskey cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- Grapes (to taste)
- Sour cream and sugar for serving

Preparation:

1. Prepare the pancake batter: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs using a whisk until frothy. Add salt and sugar, continuing to mix until everything is well incorporated. Then, add the sour cream and blend. Gradually pour in the milk and flour, alternating them to avoid lumps. The last ingredient to add is the sparkling water, which will give the pancakes a slightly fluffy texture. After mixing, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

2. Heat the pan: In a non-stick skillet, add a little oil and heat it over medium heat. If you have two pans, use both to reduce cooking time.

3. Cook the pancakes: Pour a ladle of the pancake batter into the skillet, rotating the skillet to evenly distribute the batter. Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes, until the edges are golden and the center is cooked. Flip the pancake and cook the other side as well. Repeat the process until all the batter is used. You will get about 8 pancakes.

4. Prepare the filling: In a separate bowl, crumble the cottage cheese with a fork. Add the maple syrup, whiskey cream, and vanilla essence. Mix well until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous paste. This filling will bring a delicate taste and irresistible aroma.

5. Assemble the pancakes: Take the 8 prettiest pancakes and spread them with the cottage cheese filling. Sprinkle some grapes on each pancake, then carefully roll them up.

6. Bake in the oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the filled pancakes in a baking dish, drizzle with a little sour cream, and bake for 10-15 minutes, until they are slightly golden and the flavors are well integrated.

7. Serve: After removing them from the oven, sprinkle a little sugar on top and enjoy the pancakes warm, alongside a glass of milk or a fragrant tea.
