Divide the dough in two. Keep remainder covered with a damp cloth. Lightly flour a surface and roll dough out to approx. 1/8 thick and cut into 4 1/2 to 5 inch circles. Insert your favorite filling, fold over and press ends together with the tines of a fork.

Drop each pierogi into boiling water for about two minutes. When the pierogi floats to the top, it's done. Melt some butter in a pan and fry the pierogi's until a light golden brown. Serve with sour cream or sauteed onions on top.
