Cheese and Potato Pierogi
Ingredients List
-
6 cups all-purpose flour
-
3 eggs
-
1 pinch salt
-
water as needed
-
5 pounds potatoes, peeled
-
1 pound processed cheese, cubed
-
salt and pepper to taste

onion salt to taste
Instructions
Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until they are tender but firm, around 15 minutes. Drain the water once done.
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, eggs, and salt. Gradually add water, little by little, until the dough becomes firm. Roll out small portions of the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using a large biscuit cutter or drinking glass, cut out circles.
For the filling: In a bowl, mix together mashed potatoes, cheese, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture in the center of each dough circle, fold the dough over, and seal the edges. To cook, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Drop in the pierogi one by one and stir gently. They are ready when they float to the surface.
