    To freeze put a piece of wax paper on a cookie sheet... put dumplings on the wax paper..... lay a piece of wax paper on the top.and then lay another single layer of dumplings... keep repeating this procedure... mine sometime is 4-5 layers high....

  11. 11

    Roll out more dough.... and our on wax paper..... do this til ALL THE DOUGH....is rolled out.... I only do 1/3 of the dough at a time because it is easier to.handle....
