• Combine three cups of chicken broth, frozen pierogies, cheddar cheese and kielbasa in a 4-6 quart crock pot. Cook on high 3-4 hours, or on low for 6 hours.
• About thirty minutes before serving, warm up cream cheese with remaining one cup of the chicken broth in microwave until the cream cheese is warm. Or you can warm it up on the stove top. Whisk it together until smooth.
• Pour this mixture into crock pot. Stir. Top with remaining one cup of cheese. Cover and cook on low for an additional 30 minutes. Then serve! Top with sliced green onions (optional)

• In a medium saucepan, melt butter and fry onion on medium-low heat, until onion is golden brown.
• Pour onion and butter over pierogies; add salt and pepper.
• Cook, on high, for 3 hours.
• A few times during cooking, use tongs and gently re-arrange pierogies and ladle butter sauce to cover pierogies on top.
• Turn to low or keep warm once pierogies are cooked and/or butter sauce begins to bubble.

CROCK POT PIEROGIES AND BACON

Steps:

• Boil pierogies according to package directions (I boiled water in a large stock pot and added all of the pierogies at once). Drain.
• Spray crock of crock pot with cooking spray or add liner to keep pierogies from sticking.
• Cook bacon until done enough to crumble. Cool on paper towels. Reserve 2 Tbsp grease to cook onions.
• Reheat bacon grease and cook onions over medium/high heat in bacon grease until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add butter to pan until melted. Stir bacon back into pan with butter onion mixture.
• Place a layer of pierogies in the crock pot. Drizzle butter mixture over the top. Repeat these steps until all pierogies are in the crock pot. Drizzle any leftover butter mixture over the top. Try to split it up between layers it so 75% of it is gone when you reach the top.
• Cover and turn crock pot to low to keep heat we had it on low for about 6 hours and the edges started to get crunchy (which we liked). Turn to warm if this is a problem.
