Instructions

Make the Dough

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine flour and salt.

Step 2

Beat the egg, sour cream, and softened butter together in a small bowl. Add this to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 4

Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling

Step 5

Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes.

Step 6

Drain and mash the potatoes. Stir in cheddar cheese, cream cheese (if using), butter, and season with salt and pepper. Let the filling cool.

Assemble the Perogies

Step 7

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness.

Step 8

Use a round cutter (3-4 inches in diameter) to cut out circles.

Step 9

Place 1-2 teaspoons of filling in the center of each circle.

Step 10

Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Pinch the edges tightly to seal, or crimp with a fork.

Cook the Perogies

Step 11

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Step 12

Cook the pierogies in batches until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Sauté for Extra Flavor

Step 13

Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the boiled pierogies until golden and crisp on both sides.
