Steps:
- 1. Mash boiled potatoes with butter and milk.(keep at room temperature)

- 3. Sautee diced onion in bacon grease until carmelized. Remove with slotted spoon and add to mashed potatoes and bacon. You are now ready to fill pierogi pockets.
- 4. Pierogi Dough 3 lrg eggs 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream 3 cups all-purpose flour 1/3 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking powder Note: If dough is too thick add a couple of tablespoon of cold water until you reach pie dough like texture. On flour prepared rolling surface , roll out 1/4 of dough at a time ... using a cutter/lid approx 3 1/2 in diameter cut out dough cicles (makes approx 24 pockets) ... fill center of circles with approx 1 heaping tablespoon of mashed potato filling ... fold over circle and with applied egg wash on edges close pierogi pockets pressing down with fork all along open edges. Add approx 6 pierogi at a time to pot of boiling salted water, boil approx 5-7 minutes. Remove from water and drain.
