Cottage Cheese Perogies Recipe

In a medium bowl mix together the cottage cheese egg yolks and 3/4 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.

In a separate bowl mix together the flour 1 teaspoon of salt and baking powder. Pour in the vegetable oil and cold water and mix or knead into a smooth dough.

Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut into 3 inch circles using a glass can or cookie cutter. Place a spoonful of the cottage cheese filling onto each circle. Fold in half and pinch the edges together to seal.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the perogies into the water and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until they float. Remove from water with a slotted spoon and place on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet to drain excess water.
