The Recipe:

In my old neighborhood we called these pierogies.

This Italian variation uses some ricotta and the chocolate/hazelnut spread Nutella as a filling to make an irresistible batch of "mezza lune," or "half moons," for dessert. To see the recipe, just click here.

Buon appetito, and thanks for listening.
