Coat a 7 inch nonstick skillet with the cooking spray and set over moderately high heat.
When the skillet is hot, pour in 2 tablespoons of the batter, rotating the pan to make a thin pancake.
Cook for 30 seconds or until set, flip, and cook 20 to 30 seconds longer or until the blini is golden.
Transfer to a plate, top with a sheet of wax paper, and repeat until all the batter is used.
