Steps:
- Cook potatoes in salty water until you can easily pierce them with a fork. Drain water from cooked potatoes. Mash them with some warm milk and butter. Mix in cheese.
- Whisk eggs with sour cream and milk until you get an even texture.
- To the liquid ingredients, add in flour and salt.
- Knead the dough by hand or by using a standing mixer. Allow dough to rest for 10 minutes once fully kneaded and elastic.
- Roll out the dough on a well floured surface. Cut circles out of the dough using a cookie cutter or a floured glass cup.
- One by one, spoon filling into dough dough. Fold the dough over to create a quesadilla or empanada shape. Pinch edges together with your fingers to seal the filling inside.
- Flour the surface where you plan to place pierogi. Note: You can freeze the pierogi at this point and save them for later.
- Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil. One by one, add pierogi into the boiling water. Once they float to the top (10-15 minutes into the cooking), they are fully cooked.
- In a buttered pan, sauté onion to a golden brown. Add pierogi to pan. Fry sides of pierogi to a golden brown.

POTATO PIEROGI
Pierogi were traditionally served as a meatless dish during Lent, but evolved into a popular side dish. Pierogi bob to the surface of the cooking water when they're done.

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk egg. Add sour cream, and whisk until smooth. Add milk and 1 cup water, and whisk until combined. Slowly add about 3 cups flour, and stir with a wooden spoon to combine.
- Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and work in about 1 cup flour as you knead. Use a plastic scraper to lift dough as it will stick to the counter before flour is worked in. Continue kneading for 8 to 10 minutes, working in another 1/2 cup flour. The dough should be elastic in texture and no longer sticky. Be careful not to add too much flour, as this will toughen dough. Place dough in a lightly floured bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let rest while you prepare filling.
- Make the filling: Place potatoes in a large pot, and cover with cold water. Add salt. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender. Drain and mash with a potato masher. Add 4 tablespoons melted butter and the cheeses, and continue to mash until well incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place a large pot of salted water over high heat, and bring to a boil. Lay a clean linen towel on your counter, and evenly distribute cornmeal on it to prevent sticking.
- On a floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Using a glass or cookie cutter measuring 2 1/2 inches in diameter, cut out as many circles as possible. Gather dough scraps together, rolling them out again, and continue cutting.
- Form filling into 1 1/2-inch balls, and place a ball in the center of each dough circle. Holding a circle in your hand, fold dough over filling, and pinch the edges, forming a well-sealed crescent. Transfer to linen towel. Continue this process until all dough circles are filled.
- Place pierogi in boiling water in batches. They will sink to the bottom of the pot and then rise to the top. Once they rise, let them cook for about a minute more. Meanwhile, drizzle platter with remaining 8 tablespoons melted butter. Remove pierogi from pot, and transfer to platter to prevent sticking. Serve immediately.
MOM'S BEST PIEROGIES
This recipe is from my Mom. She never measured the ingredients for this recipe, so I had to measure all her "handfuls" and "pinches" but, not to worry, I have made them myself and it's just like Mom's. She and her good friend used to make large batches of these, starting early in the morning and not finishing until late in the day. It makes the best pierogies I have ever tasted.

Steps:
- Sauté onions with the butter in a medium sized skillet until translucent.
- Boil potatoes in a large pot of water until they are soft (about 8 minutes).
- Drain.
- Add the cubed cheese and sautéed onions/butter to the drained potatoes and mash (the cheese will melt and combine with the potatoes and onions).
- While potatoes are boiling, combine all dough ingredients and knead on a board or table top for about 5 minutes or until dough does not stick to your hands.
- Add more flour as you knead if necessary.
- Separate dough into two pieces and cover bowl with a towel or plastic wrap.
- Allow dough to rest for 20-30 minutes.
- While dough is resting, make balls (about the size of a walnut) out of the potato mixture by rolling the mixture between the palms of your hands.
- Place balls on a waxed paper-lined pizza sheet or board and place another sheet of waxed paper on top.
- Set aside.
- Roll out one of the two dough pieces gently on a lightly floured board or table top.
- Flour dough sparingly as you roll it out, so it doesn't stick to the rolling pin.
- Flip the dough over from time to time as you roll it out until it is about 15 inches in diameter (dough should be about 1/8 inch thick).
- Repeat with second piece of dough.
- Cut out dough circles using a drinking glass or cup that is about 2 3/4 inches in diameter.
- Flour your finger tips as you go along.
- Place a potato ball in the middle of each dough cut-out.
- Gently pull the dough over the potato ball and carefully seal ends of dough so it forms a semi-circle (you can seal by pinching end of dough with fingers or you can seal with the end/tines of a fork).
- Make sure there are no air bubbles in the pierogies.
- Boil pierogies on low heat in a large uncovered pot of water (add a teaspoon of oil to water first).
- Boil in batches, 10-15 pierogies at a time, 5 minutes per batch.
- Pierogies will float.
- Drain pierogies and transfer to serving bowl.
- You can pour melted butter and/or extra sautéed onions over top, or serve with dollops of sour cream on top of each pierogi.
