The New York Times has a long tradition of sharing recipes and wonderful culinary sections of the paper featuring chefs and venues of wonderous flavors.

Here is an example for you:
*Farmer in the Dell*
1 pound six ounce loaf extra fresh white bread
1 seven and one half ounce package farmer cheese
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
1/2 pound butter, melted and clear yellow liquid poured off for cooking (discard milky solids)
1/4 cup confectioners sugar
 
Remove crusts from the bread slices. With a rolling pin, roll each slice until very thin.
Beat together the cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla and egg and spread 1 tablespoon mixture on each slice of bread.
Roll up each slice and pinch sides to hold together.
Heat the butter in a very heavy skillet and sauté the rolls a few at a time, over medium heat until golden. Roll in confectioners sugar while hot. 
Yield about 26 pieces or 8 servings.
