Pierogi(Polish Dumplings) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 c. sour cream
    4 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
    2 Tbsp. melted butter
    2 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
    2 tsp. salt
    2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
Preparation
    In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients and knead into a soft, pliable dough.
    Cut in half and let rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
    Roll out each half thinly.
    Using a drinking glass, cut the dough in round circles.
    Place less than a tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle.
    Rub the edges with a little bit of water and fold over.
    Gently press out excess air and seal into a half moon.
    (You may freeze pierogis at this point for future cooking.)
    Cook in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes.
    This recipe makes 70 to 80 pierogis.
