Pie Crust the Perfect Canvas // Mini Cherry Pies

92 · Dec 13, 2013 · 28 Comments

This post brought to you by Crisco // It's no secret that I LOVE pie! I love making pie, I love eating pie. As far as I'm concerned pie crust is the perfect canvas to make what ever you want! A few weeks ago I created a post about some of my favorite tips for making Picture Perfect Pies. It all starts with my favorite simple pie crust recipe from Crisco. Once you have that down you can make anything. You can make sweet pies or savory pies. Last night after a day of pie making, I decided to whip up some more crust dough and make some Taco Pies in my new Breville Personal Pie Maker. The family LOVED it!! I will post the recipe soon, promise!

While I was working on this week's pie project, I thought I would make a little video on Instagram on how I make my pie crust.

Kinda fun… thanks to Rhonna Designs and Mindy Gledhill for letting me use some of their talents for the video.

So, I had a thought. Since I just adore pies… Why not make mini pies to give as neighbor gifts for this Christmas season?

Now, these couldn't be any easier… With a great pie crust recipe, some simple store bought filling and the Breville Personal Pie maker. Nothing too crazy here, I gathered my pie crust ingredients…

If you still have any questions about making Pie Crust, you can always call the Crisco Pie Hotline 1-877-FOR PIE TIPS (877-367-7438) for all kinds of around the clock PIE help this holiday season!

Next, I took some store bought cherry pie filling and supplemented it with some frozen sweet black cherries. The color contrast makes the filling really pretty, plus I LOVE black cherries. I used one 12 oz. bag of frozen cherries to 2 cans of cherry pie filling.

Then, I rolled out my pie crust and cut it using the special cutter from Breville machine, here is a quick video on how I did that as well.

Didn't they turn out CUTE?! They fit right inside those clear cellophane bags that you can find any where these days. Then I added some holiday greenery to make it look festive.

These cute little mini pies are just so fun and so easy to make…

The are just scrumptious!! Crisco has made pie making so easy these days.

They have a Crisco Picture Perfect Pie Pinterest board that has all kinds of fabulous recipes.

Making the Holidays Sweet with Eagle Brand // KitchenAid Mixer GIVEAWAY

14 · Dec 1, 2013 · 335 Comments

This post and KitchenAid Mixer GIVEAWAY is brought to you by Eagle Brand™ // I don't know about you, but the holidays just would not be the holidays without some good old holiday sweet treats. Christmas morning lasts but a short hour or so, but… Holiday cooking and baking last the whole month long. Those are the memories that last for generations. I can't tell you what I received as a kid for Christmas when I was eight or nine, but I can tell you about the scrumptious goodies I helped my Mom make those years. I remember the flavors of the season and those flavors are what usher in those holiday memories each year.

Every year my Dad would get a box of chocolate covered cherries. I loved those gooey treats! I'm sure I drove him nuts constantly asking if I could have one. I just adore cherries and when you add chocolate to the mix… It's a match made in HEAVEN!!

I have since come up with a tasty dessert to share during the holidays that takes me back to childhood…

If you love cherries and adore chocolate, this dessert is one you should try! Click HERE for the Chocolate Cherry Mousse Pie recipe.

Now, my Mom has always been a bit of the adventurous person in the family. We never stuck to the rules when it came to any kind of cooking or baking. When it came to Christmas, some years she liked to introduce a bit of Latin flair to our holiday table. We would have Soapapillas for New Years and she would make an amazing Flan for Christmas that I have adored forever!!

If you haven't had flan, you are missing out!! It is a creamy egg custard sweetened with Eagle Brand™ Sweetened Condensed Milk and topped with a lovely caramel sauce that is to die for. Click HERE for my Creamy Flan recipe.

So… what flavors usher in the holidays for YOU? The folks at Eagle Brand would like to help sweeten your holidays with a new KitchenAid mixer and a Eagle Brand™ gift pack… This would for sure help to sweeten your holiday!!
