HELLO,
I just wanted to tell you that i tried your pierogi recipe and i must admit when i saw cream cheese for the cheese & potato filling i was a little skeptical...but its GREAT!! taste just like my grandmas recipe..i also made them with prune!! i thought my family were the only strange ones who made the prune, but after reading i am glad to know we are not! this recipe was also very easy and not as time consuming as i would have thought! thank you for this great recipe...i will continue to use it from now on!!

The recipe for the cottage cheese filling is what I use.
It may be a little different
1 8oz. container of dry cottage cheese
1 egg yoke
1 tsp. sugar
dash of salt
Mix this really good and put in the center of your pirogi.

I'm looking for a filling recipe that my mother made without potato, just cottage cheese and egg for binder. Has anyone got a recipe for it?
Yes they keep well when frozen.
Can these be frozen easily?
Brad use Farmers Cheese that looks like cottage cheese with no liquid. also dry cottage cheese is better if they have it.
Yes Kelly, The Philedelphia Cream Cheese is what I use (the kind that comes in big bar's with foil wrappers).
IS THE CREAM CHEESE THAT IS USED PHILADELPHIA CREAM CHEESE?
I have lost, Lord knows how, my Russian grandmother's pierogi recipe! Thank you so much for posting her recipe, or as near as I can recall, on the internet!!!

I'll try this one next weekend. My grandmother used to use 'bakers' cheese which sounds like the farmers cheese described below - a form of cottage cheese. Re; freezing - after making them, my g.m. would smear butter around the perogy after boiling & prior to placing them an ad-hock freezing container. I guess this prevented them from fusing/sticking together and well I remember when defrosting them it was convenient because the light coating of butter made for perfect frying and a nice light golden color.
