1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
1/4 cup Sugar
1 large Egg

Add mushrooms to mixture, then drain any excess moisture/grease from mixture. Add the hash browns, eggs, milk and
seasonings. Cook and stir until the eggs are completely set. Sprinkle with cheese and keep warm. Punch dough down, then divide into 16 pieces. On a floured surface, roll each piece into a 6 or 7-inch circle. Top each with about 1/3 cup filling, then fold dough over filling and pinch the edges to seal. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
