Ingredients
Scale
- 2 refrigerated pre-made crusts
- 1 cup strawberry preserves
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 365°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Unroll the pie crust and cut out heart shapes. Use a rolling pin to re-roll any scrap dough to create more hearts.
- Place about 1 heaping tablespoon of strawberry preserves in the center of every other heart, saving about 1 tablespoon for later icing.
- Cover each filled heart with another heart and crimp the edges with a fork to seal them tightly.
- Cut 2 small slits in the top of each pie for ventilation.
- Transfer the pies to the baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until they're golden brown and can be lifted off the parchment easily.
- Let the pies cool on a wire rack.
- In a medium bowl, mix the powdered sugar, reserved strawberry preserves, and heavy cream until smooth. Spoon or spread this icing on the cooled hand pies and garnish with sprinkles.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
For best results, chill the dough before baking to help maintain the shape of the pies.
Feel free to use other fruit preserves if you want to vary the flavors.
