Ingredients

• 1 portion Pierogi dough (see Pierogi recipe) 
• 200 g mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Nutella 
• Vegetable oil for deep frying

To serve

• 3 tbsp Nutella 
• Icing sugar
• A small handful of roasted hazelnuts, roughly chopped 
• Passionfruit ice cream

Instructions

1. Roll out on a floured surface to ⅛ inch thick. Use a 10 cm (4-inch) cutter to cut out disks, reroll the dough and continue to cut out until all of the dough is used.
2. Mix the cheese and Nutella together in a bowl. Spoon 1½ teaspoons of the filling into the centre of each wrapper, fold over and press the edges to seal.
3. Fry in vegetable oil 180C, for 3-4 minutes or until golden. Place on a paper towel or wire rack to drain. Dust with icing sugar.
4. Spread a spoonful of Nutella across your plate, top with the pierogi, pile hazelnuts on the side and top with passionfruit icing to serve.
