- To the liquid ingredients, add in flour, sugar and salt. Knead the dough by hand or a stand-up mixer until it's no longer sticky.

- One by one fill your circles with filling, placing the filling in the center.
- Fold over the edges and tighten them up with your fingers, making sure it's firm enough for your filling not to fall out.
- Bring a pot of water up to boil. Add 10-20 pierogi, cook until they float up to the top. Drain and top with melted unsalted butter. Optionally, serve with sour cream, jam or sugar.Tip: If freezing the pierogi, use a floured cooking sheet or cutting board. Once the pierogi are fully frozen, move them to a ziplock bag.

Steps:
- Put milk, eggs (beaten), salt, and flour in a mixer, and mix on low speed until a dough is formed. Continue adding flour until dough is tough and no longer sticky. If your dough is getting too tough for your mixer, continue to knead by hand while adding more flour. Once you have a nice firm dough, cover and place in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
- Add dry curd cottage cheese, heavy cream, egg, and salt and pepper to a bowl and mix with spoon/fork. Roll out a portion of the dough on a flat surface (about 1/8"-1/4" thick), and cut out circles (or squares if you prefer). Put about 1 teaspoon of cottage cheese in the middle of a circle, fold, and pinch together to seal the perogy. Place finished perogies on a wax paper-lined cookie sheet. Perogies can either be boiled right away, or frozen and bagged to be saved for a later day. Boil perogies for approximately 8 minutes, or until done. Serve and enjoy!

Place on the lined baking sheet. Fold over the edge of the dumpling, like a pot sticker. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes to hold their shape.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add dumplings; they will rise to the top once they are finished cooking.

VERENIKA (OR VERENKI) CASSEROLE
This is a fast version of regular verenika, which is individual dumplings filled with a cottage cheese mixture, boiled, then fried, and then served with a ham gravy. But it has the flavor of the original verenika dish. Once a year, regular verenika is served at our MCC sale to raise funds for the Mennonite Central Committee. I got the recipe from our church cookbook and have changed it just a little.

BASIC RUSSIAN VARENIKI OR PELMENI DOUGH (RUSSIAN PIEROGI)
A soft, and tender pelmeni dough that is easy to roll and can be used for sweet and savory recipes.

Steps:
- Whisk together egg and sour cream until well combined.
- Whisk in 1 1/4 cup milk and 3/4 cup water.
- Using a spatula, mix in four, 1 cup at a time.
- Place the dough onto a floured surface. Using a food scarper, knead the dough by turning and folding it with the food scraper. Dust the dough with flour as you need it until it is soft and doesn't stick to your hands (you'll need around 1 cup more flour). Knead for 6 to 8 minutes. Don't add too much flour or the dough will become hard to work with.
- Place the dough under a bowl and let it sit at room temperature for about 1 hour.
- Cut the dough into 4 to 6 pieces. Work with one piece at a time and keep the rest covered with plastic wrap.
- Form your chunk of dough into a log and cut off small pieces, one at a time. Pieces should be a little larger than a gumball. Dust your rolling pin and cutting board with flour and roll out a piece of dough until it is 1/8" thick and 3" diameter.
- Fill these circles with the desired filling (potatoes, cherries, blueberries or meat). Fold the dough over the filling to form a crescent and seal the edges tightly with your fingers. If making pelmeni (meat filling), pinch the two edges together to form a "diaper" shape. Place the finished pierogis on a cutting board dusted with flour until ready to boil.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. As you finish the first batch of pierogies, place them in boiling water. After they float to the top, cook about 2 to 3 minutes more, then remove them with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Drizzle the pierogies with melted butter.
- Repeat steps 7 through 9 with the rest of the dough.

- If using a stand mixer: Whisk the dry ingredients and then add the wet ingredients; combine and knead the dough for about 7-8 min adding more buttermilk if needed. The dough will be tacky yet firm. Cover and allow to sit 20 minutes.
- If using a bread machine: just combine all ingredients and set the bread machine to dough settings. Bread machine settings will knead and allow the dough to slightly rise so you can start working with the dough as soon as you remove it.
