Prep time 15 minutes
Cook time 15 minutes
Total time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 packages Pillsbury rolled pie dough
  • 1 can cherry pie filling
  • 1 large egg
  • splash of water
  • 1/4 cup turbinado sugar raw sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • On a lightly floured work surface unroll the pie crusts, working with one piece at a time. Keep the others in the fridge! Cut out 3-inch round cookie cutter, placing 24 rounds between the two baking sheets. Fill each with about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling.
  • Cover the cookies with another round and crimp the sides with a fork to seal the edges. Make tiny slits on top to allow steam to escape. If you want to make a lattice topping for your cookies, cut out long strips of dough from the scraps and make a lattice on top.
  • Brush the tops of the cookies with egg wash (egg whisked with splash of water). And sprinkle liberally with sugar.
  • Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool before eating. Can be stored at room temperature for up to 4 days.
