Steps:
- Mix sugar, farmers cheese and egg, until it's fully mixed in. Set it aside.
- Whisk eggs together with sour cream, lukewarm water and milk until you get an even texture.
- 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.
- Roll out the dough on a well floured surface. Using a cup, stamp out circles. Flour the cup to make it easier to cut circles.
- 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.

COTTAGE CHEESE VARENIKI RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:
- Dough: First mix flour with the salt. Combine the egg, milk and cottage cheese in blender. Stir combination into the flour and salt and knead to make a soft dough. Cover and let the dough stand for 10 minutes. Filling: In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese with the egg, and season to taste with salt. The filling should be thick enough to hold its shape in a spoon. Roll the dough quite thin on a floured board. Cut rounds with a large biscuit cutter. Put a round of dough on the palm of your hand. Place a spoonful of the cheese filling on the dough, fold it over to form a half circle, and press the edges together with your fingers. The edges should be free of filling. Be sure that the edges are sealed well to prevent the filling from running out. Place the vareniki on a floured board or a kitchen towel (don't crowd them), and cover with a kitchen towel to prevent drying. Drop a few vareniki at a time into a large quantity of rapidly boiling salted water. Stir very gently with a wooden spoon to separate the vareniki and to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Continue boiling for 3 or 4 minutes. Vareniki are ready when they are well puffed. Remove them with a slotted spoon. Place in a deep dish, sprinkle generously with melted butter, and toss very gently to coat them evenly with butter. Serve in a large dish without piling or crowding them. The traditional accompaniment is sour cream. Sour cream, may be used in the filling if the cottage cheese is very dry.

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!

COTTAGE CHEESE VARENIKJE
This is one of my favourite comfort foods. It's not a dish you will eat if on a weight reduction diet. Usually farmer sausage is eaten with it and served with a cream gravy. This recipe is my step mother's recipe and its easy to make.
