Combine the pierogi dough ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook and mix on low until the mixture comes together, then increase the speed for 5 minutes to knead the dough.

1

Once the dough becomes springy and soft, transfer it to an oiled bowl and let it rest for 30 minutes.

2

Roll out the dough using a rolling pin until it's around ⅛ inch thick, then cut out circles (around 3 inches) using a cookie cutter. You should have enough dough to make around 25 circles.

3

Place half a tablespoon of the sour cream mashed potato mixture into the center of each dough circle and fold them over to form a semi-circle.

4

Pinch the edges tightly to completely seal the filling.

5

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and gently drop half of the pierogi in the boiling water. Once the boiled pierogi start to float, remove them with a slotted spoon, and transfer them to a bowl.

6

Serve with sour cream, and enjoy.

Cooking Tips

For best results, knead until the dough becomes smooth and pliable.
