PIROGIE 
2 eggs
2 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. oil
4 or 5 tbsp. milk or water, enough to make a nice soft dough

Beat eggs until nice and fluffy. Add remaining ingredients. Roll out and cut into 2" or 3" squares.

After putting the filling on the square, bring the corners together like a half diamond. There are several different kinds of fillings you may use, and you can take your choice.

First, 1/2 cup mashed potatoes with 3/4 cup grated American cheese, enough cheese to make the substance yellow.

Put 1 teaspoon of ingredients on each square, bring corners of the square together like a half diamond (seal edges real good). Put into kettle of boiling water, putting only a few at a time and boil about 15 minutes, after they come to the top of the water.

After you have cooked all of them, have melted a cube and a half of butter. You can saute an onion in the butter, then pour over your cooked pierogies.

You may use other fillings also. Mashed, cooked, dry prunes for one and also dry cottage cheese.
