| 1. Cottage Cheese filling: Mix tog the dry curd cottage cheese with the egg yolks, salt and pepper to taste. | 2. Dough: Rub together flour, salt and margarine as you do for pie dough. | 3. Add milk and beaten egg whites. | 4. Knead well. | 5. Roll dough very thin on a lightly floured board. | 6. Cut rounds with a 3-inch cutter. | 7. Place a spoonful of filling in the center. | 8. Moisten the edges with a little water and fold over to make a half circle, pinching the edges tog, making sure no filling is in the seal or they will open up while being cooked. | 9. Drop a few varenikje at a time into a large pot of rapidly boiling water. | 10. Do not cook too many at one time. | 11. Stir gently with a wooden spoon to keep them from sticking to the bottom of the pot and to each other. | 12. Cook about 3-4 minutes: they are ready when they are well puffed. | 13. Gently remove them and place in a serving dish. | 14. If you prefer, after cooking them, you can brown them in butter in a hot skillet. | 15. Serve them hot with cream gravy or sour cream. | 16. Gravy: Melt the butter in in a large frying pan. | 17. Mix by shaking the flour and cream in a jar with a lid. | 18. Add to the hot butter and stir until thickened. | 19. Add salt and pepper to taste. | 20. Depending on how much gravy you like, you may have to make a double recipe of the gravy. | 21. These varenikje can be frozen before cooking, by placing them on well floured cookie sheets and placed in the freezer. | 22. When well frozen, place into plastic bags in amounts as needed per meal. | 23. Enjoy! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
