Ingredients

• 24 pieces Frozen potato and cheddar perogies
• 8 slices Bacon
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 2 cups Sour cream
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, discard most of the bacon grease leaving about 1 tablespoon, then melt the butter. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the cooked onions and garlic.

Step 5

Spread half of the frozen perogies in an even layer in the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Pour half of the sour cream mixture over the perogies, followed by half of the crumbled bacon and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 7

Repeat these layers with the remaining perogies, sour cream mixture, bacon, and the remaining cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired and serve warm.
