Ingredients:




-----------------------------------BATTER-----------------------------------


     4 lg Eggs


 1 1/4 c  Milk


     2 tb Sour cream


   1/4 c  Butter; melted


   3/4 ts Vanilla extract


 1 1/3 c  All-purpose white flour;


          -preferably unbleached


     1 tb Sugar


 1 1/4 ts Baking powder





----------------------------------FILLING----------------------------------


     2 pk Farmer cheese; (8oz)


    15 oz Regular ricotta cheese; or


          -part-skim or


     2 lg Eggs


     2 tb Sugar


 1 1/2 tb Lemon juice



-------------------------------ACCOMPANIMENTS-------------------------------


          Sour cream


          Plain or vanilla yogurt


          Applesauce





 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.


 


 Butter a 13 X 9" baking dish.


 


 In a blender or food processor (fitted with a steel blade) combine all


 batter ingredients. Process until very smooth, scraping down the sides of


 the container once or twice. Measure out 1 1/2 cups of the batter, and pour


 it into the baking dish. Cook for about 10 minutes, until set.


 


 While the batter is cooking, combine all the filling ingredients in a large


 bowl and blend well. When the baking dish is removed from the oven, spread


 the filling over the set batter layer, smoothing the top.


 


 Give the remaining batter a quick stir to re-suspend the ingredients. Very


 slowly pour the batter over the filling, making certain that all the


 filling is covered. Carefully carry the baking dish to the oven so the


 layers remain distinct.


 


 Bake 35-40 minutes until the top is puffed and set. Remove casserole from


 oven and let it rest for 1--15 minutes before cutting it into squares to


 serve.


 


 Serve with desired accompaniments.
