INSTRUCTIONS
Cut the butter into the flour until as fine as cornmeal. Add the mashed
potatoes, eggs, and salt, mixing until smooth. Roll out to 1/4-inch
thickness and cut into 3 to 4-inch squares. Place a plum on each piece and
carefully and completely surround with dough. Gently put a few at a time
into boiling water, not allowing the water to boil too vigorously. Cook
about 15 minutes. Check often while cooking.
These may be steamed instead, if desired.
Serve with melted butter, sugar and cinnamon, or even a little cottage
cheese. Some people like them with buttered and browned bread crumbs.
Note: My mother's favorite way of preparing fruit dumplings would be to
saute them in butter (after they were boiled), and then sprinkle them with
the cinnamon and sugar.
