If using cottage cheese, place in center of kitchen towel and squeeze to remove excess moisture until cheese is very dry and measures 1 1/2 cups packed; transfer to processor. Add 1 egg, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Using on/off turns, blend until mixture is almost smooth. Transfer filling to bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
• Heat heavy small skillet with 6-inch-diameter bottom over medium-high heat. Brush lightly with some melted butter. Pour 2 1/2 tablespoons batter into skillet, tilting to spread evenly.

Repeat with remaining batter, brushing skillet with more melted butter as needed.

• Place a 9-inch well-seasoned crepe pan or heavy skillet over medium-low heat. When pan is well heated, film it lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Allow pan to heat again for a few moments, then ladle 1/2 cup batter into skillet and tilt in all directions to spread batter thinly and evenly. Cook until underside is pale yellow-white and edges lift easily from bottom of pan, about 3 minutes. Adjust heat as needed if crepe is cooking too quickly or slowly.
• Use a spatula to flip crepe, then cook other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. (The first crepe often tears or folds; there will still be enough batter for 10 crepes.) Transfer crepe to a plate, and repeat with remaining batter to make 10 crepes.
• Place a crepe on a work surface and spread 3 to 4 tablespoons filling on one side. Starting from filled side, roll blintz and stack on a serving plate or in a container seam side down. At this point blintzes may be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
• To serve, place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium heat. Melt a tablespoon butter and add as many blintzes as possible without crowding pan. Cook until golden brown on bottoms and filling is heated through, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook other sides until golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm; repeat with remaining crepes and filling. Serve immediately, seam side down, garnished with sour cream, if desired.
