You've probably heard of savory pierogi—those delicious Polish dumplings—but what about sweet? These blueberry-filled pierogi (babcine pierogi z jagodami) are a unique and fruity after-dinner dessert. Serve pierogi the traditional Polish way: drizzle with melted butter and top with soured cream, then sprinkle with additional sugar and blueberries.
Ingredients
- 8 cups all-purpose flour , or more as needed
- 2 eggs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter

Place 8 cups flour on a clean work surface; make a well in the center. Crack eggs into well, add butter, and pour in a little warm water; start mixing together, adding a bit more water if needed. Knead dough well, continuing to add more water as needed. Continue kneading until dough is soft and smooth, adding a little more flour only if needed.

Buttercream Frosting
This is a buttercream frosting I normally put on birthday cakes. It's like the frosting that bakeries put on cakes, extra rich and creamy from the egg yolk, but I much prefer to make my own since I know what I am putting into it, and as always, homemade is best. Makes 2 1/2 cups or enough frosting to cover tops and sides of two 8- or 9-inch layers.
Chicago-Inspired Italian Beef Sandwich
I tried to combine the traditional Italian beef sandwich with the French dip sandwich with a little nod to the pulled pork sandwich. Instead of using thinly sliced roast beef, I used stew beef, with apologies to my friends from Chicago.
