Make the filling first and let cool. Filling: in a frying pan, cook finely chopped onion and bacon. Boil potatoes. Once soft, mash along with cheese add salt and pepper to taste. Add the bacon and onion to the potatoes.

To make dough: Add flour, salt together. Add oil to the warm water, slowly pour the water in with the flour and mix together. Knead 2-3 times, break into four sections, cover and let sit for 1 1/2 hours. Roll out dough very thin on a countertop covered in flour, with a round cookie cutter, cut out of dough. Add a droplet of potato and pinch around the edges of the dough to close.

In a pot of boiling water, add salt, place perogies in the pot and softly boil until the perogies float for a while. Take them out the pot and serve.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
- the cheese wiz works the best for the filling and the bacon and onions inside the filling is optional. Some would prefer to cook them up separate add them later as garnish.
- Butter over the perogies after taking them out of the water is also popular

- Best served with sour cream
