- Mix flour, milk, eggs and sour cream together in separate mixing bowl until you get a smooth textured dough.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/8" thickness. Flour the board lightly as you roll so dough does not stick.

- Transfer boiled pierogies to cold water. Dry on towel. Brush with melted butter.
- To serve fresh, sautee until lightly browned on both sides - about 2 minutes per side. Serve with sauteed onions and sour cream.
