This recipe was originally courtesy of Tyler Florence from the Food Network.com but have used it as my base recipe and then tweaked a "bit" here and there and these were the end results. It took awhile but here it is!

Steps:
- Dough:.
- Mix the 4 eggs, butter or margarine, sour cream and salt together in a bowl with whisk.
- Sift the flour onto a flat work surface and make a well in the center, pour the wet ingredients into the crater.
- Stir the mixture with a fork, gradually incorporating the flour into the well until a soft dough forms.
- Squeeze the dough with your hands, if it's sticky, add a bit of flour, if it's not pliable, add a couple of drops of water.
- Knead the dough, adding only as much additional flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking, until it is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
- Gather the dough into a ball and cover it with an inverted bowl or plastic wrap for 10 minutes or so to rest.
- Filling:.
- Cook the potato cubes in boiling salted water until fork tender, about 15 minutes.
- Drain and then mash them with a ricer or regular "old" potato masher while they are still hot; set them aside to cool while you prepare the rest of the filling.
- Melt 3-4 tablespoons of butter or margarine in large skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add the onions, mushrooms and thyme, saute for a few minutes to soften the vegetables; season with salt and pepper.
- Continue to cook until the vegetables are broken dry and almost dry, then pour in cream & cheese; stir to incorporate.
- Remove the pan from the heat; take out sprigs of thyme, and scrape the mushroom & cheese mixture into the potatoes, mix well to incorporate the ingredients.
- Make sure the filling is not too hot or it will start to cook the dough, causing it to sog.
- Lightly flour your rolling pin and counter.
- Take 1/2 of the dough(leaving the rest covered so it doesn't dry out while you work) and roll it out into a thin circle, about 1/8" thick.
- Using a 3" round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut circles out of the dough.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of the filling into the center of each pastry circle, leaving a 1/2" border.
- Beat the remaining egg with 2 tablespoons water to make an egg wash and brush it on the edges of the circle.
- Fold the dough over 1/2 to enclose the filling and form a semi-circle and seal the edges by crimping with the tines of a fork.
- Lightly tap the bottoms of the dumpling on the counter to make it flat.
- Repeat with the remaining half of dough and filling.
- You should make about 35 pierogies; put 1/2 of them in the freezer to keep on hand (they are better than the ones you find in the freezer section of the grocery store.).
- Coat a large saute pan (that has a tight fitting lid) with vegetable oil and place over medium heat.
- Lay the pierogies in the pan (you may have to do this in batches) and fry them for a couple of minutes until they start to crisp and brown on both sides.
- Pour in 1 cup of water and cover the pan to let the pierogies steam; when the water evaporates, the pierogies should be cooked and crisp.
- Arrange the pierogies on a platter, garnish with parsley and serve with roasted apples, sour cream, butter with caramelized onions, and/or any of the following:.
- Roasted apples:.
- 3 Gala apples, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped.
- 3 Golden Delicious, peeled, cored and coarsely chopped.
- 1 lemon juiced.
- 2 cinnamon sticks.
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or brown sugar "splenda".
- Pinch of salt.
- 2 Tablespoons butter.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Spread the apples out in a casserole pan and add the lemon juice, cinnamon, sugar or splenda, salt and butter.
- Bake until the apples are roasted and "NOT" mushy, about 20 minutes.
- Serve the apples with peirogies, either hot or chilled.
- Caramelized Onions & Sour Cream:.
- 4-5 large onions, sliced thin.
- 3-4 tablespoons butter or margarine.
- 1-2 teaspoons sugar, to caramelize - no subs.
- Sour cream, to serve on the side.
- Melt butter in large saute pan and then add onions & sugar; saute for about 15 minutes or until onions are soft and a nice golden color.
- Serve onions with pierogies and sour cream, as little or all you want.
- "Maple" Cured Bacon & Melted Butter:
- 1/2 lb of "maple" cured bacon or turkey bacon.
- 4-5 tablespoons butter.
- Parsley, chopped fine - garnish.
- Saute bacon in frying pan or microwave oven.
- When crispy and drained; crumble into little pieces.
- Melt butter in a saucepan or in microwave oven, before it turns brown, remove and sprinkle with parsley.
- Sprinkle melted butter with parsley and bacon on hot pierogies.
- Melted Butter & Green Onions:.
- 4-5 tablespoons butter
- 1-2 green onions, chopped fine (green & white parts).
- Melt butter in saucepan or microwave, remove before it browns.
- Sprinkle with green onions and spread it over the warm pierogies.
- Use any and all combinations with these.
- There are too many variations for me to list but I have listed a few that my family enjoys. Hope you do too!
SHREDDED POTATO BASKETS WITH CHEESE AND BACON #5FIX
5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry - This is my tasty version of a popular appetizer served at a local restaurant. The crispy yet chewy "baskets" made with the shredded potatoes (hashbrowns) takes this side dish to the next level and is a family favorite.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Generously coat 2 6-compartment non-stick muffin tins with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, egg and flour, adding just enough flour so mixture "sticks together". Divide evenly among the prepared muffin compartments. Using the back of a spoon, firmly press potato mixture into bottom and up sides of each compartment, making a "well" in each.
- Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until just starting to brown. Remove from oven and divide shredded cheese evenly among cups and top each with crumbled bacon. Return to oven and bake another 5-10 minutes or until "baskets" are golden brown and cheese and bacon is hot, melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. To serve: gently run the tip of a sharp knife blade around rim of each cup to loosen. Release each basket and place on serving platter.
