Divide the dough into 2 parts.
Roll out the first part of the dough on a lightly floured surface (I like silicone rolling mats). Cut out rounds with pierogi cutter/biscuit cutter/a glass. The dough should be rolled out thinly. If the dough is hard to roll out, set it aside for about 5-10 minutes to rest.
Gather scraps, cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
Scoop some filling with a teaspoon and pinch it with your fingers so it's more compact. Place some of the filling on each round.
Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press edges together, sealing and crimping with your fingers.
Place the pierogi apart on a towel lightly sprinkled with flour, cover loosely with a kitchen cloth so they don‘t dry out.
Repeat with the remaining dough.
