Nutella Perogi Recipe from my mom (per request)

My mom was saying something about tomorrow (Sunday, 5 Feb 2012) being National Nutella Day or something and she had created this recipe that is greatly enjoyed a while ago. She doesn't have a blog so when she mentioned on Facebook wanting to participate, I offered to post it on mine. Any questions will need to be directed to her, as I've not made pierogi since I lived with her almost 15 years ago and really don't remember.


Nutella Perogi

2 cups flour
1 egg
1/2 cup warm milk (add a teaspoon of margarine and sour cream)
Nutella
Large pan of boiling water
Small dish with water to use to seal dough

In a bowl add 2 cups flour, make a well, add the egg and mix well with fork.

Microwave the milk with margarine and sour cream in it for about one minute.

Slowly add the milk mixture to the flour first working it with a fork then your hands till it forms a ball and then knead and work with it so it's not too gooey or dry. Add either more flour or liquid to get the right consistency. Let stand for 20 minutes.

On a floured surface take a piece of dough and roll out. Use a round cutter about 3 1/2 inches in diameter and cut out circles.

In the middle of the circle place a small spoon of Nutella. Moisten the edge of the circle with water using your finger and fold dough in half. You must do this so when you fold the dough in half so it will stick together. Make several at a time and place in boiling water. When they rise to the surface they are done. Take out and drain.

They are now ready to be fried and top with margarine and sour cream. Enjoy.
