If I had to choose an all-time favorite recipe it would be this recipe for pierogi with potatoes and cheese which I got from my Polish grandmother.

Potato and Cheese Pierogi – Polish Christmas Dumplings – Food Wishes
I'm sure I've said that a lot of recipes posted on Food Wishes were "my favorite" but this time I really mean it. These simple baked Polish potato and cheese dumplings were my absolute favorite dish as a child and I'm finally posting the official family recipe. I don't know how authentic these are compared to what you might get in Poland but my grandma Sophie was 100% Polish so I think these come pretty close.
That said I do tweak the recipe a bit by adding some fried onions which are a very traditional ingredient but for some reason weren’t in her version. I’m not sure if it’s because they disagreed with someone in the family or if there was some sort of onion shortage in New York City when they immigrated but I really think they’d be a great addition both in the filling and as a garnish on top.
Speaking of the filling if you don’t like potatoes and cheese you can fill them with all sorts of different mixtures but don’t ask me for recommendations because I’ve never made another version. I’m sure there are some really good ones out there but some things you just want to have exactly the way they were when you were growing up. Except for the onions. Either way whether you customize them to your taste or not I really hope you try them soon. Enjoy!
