Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 6
Ingredients
For pie crust:
  • 1 1⁄4 cups all purpose flour (plus more for rolling dough)
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon sugar
  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 tablespoons ice water
Additional ingredients and materials for pies:
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 large egg, with a splash of water
  • Cherry jam (or other filling of your choice)
  • Lollipop sticks (oven-safe)
  • Heart shaped cookie cutter
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Make pie crust: In a food processor, pulse flour, salt, and sugar several times to combine. Add butter. Pulse until
  3. mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds
  4. together when squeezed with fingers (if needed, add up to 2 tablespoons more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time).
  5. Do not over process.
  6. Roll out dough until it is smooth and even, roughly 1⁄4” thick.
  7. Use heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out hearts. Recombine the scraps of dough and repeat until you have 12
  8. hearts.
  9. Spoon a bit of cherry jam or filling of your choice into the center of half of the hearts. Keep the border around the
  10. outside of the hearts clean.
  11. Place a lollipop stick on each crust, pushing down with a bit of pressure so it sticks into the dough. Then, place plain
  12. dough hearts on top. Place heart pies onto a baking sheet
  13. Use a fork to pinch the edges of each pie together. Next, brush egg wash onto tops to allow them to get golden and
  14. crispy while baking.
  15. Sprinkle a bit of white sugar on top. Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown.
