Ingredients

• 16 pieces Frozen pierogies
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.

Step 3

Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Spoon half of the sour cream mixture over the pierogies, then sprinkle half of the sautéed onion and garlic mixture on top.

Step 7

Repeat the layering process with the remaining pierogies, sour cream mixture, and sautéed onions.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbling.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
