  • On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into 6 pieces.
  • Roll each piece into an 8-inch circle.
  • Place a generous 3/4 cup filling on one half of each circle, leaving a 1-inch border of dough.
  • Brush the border with water and fold the cop half over the filling.
  • Fold the edges over and crimp with a fork to seal.
