Do you love Cherry Pie but you can’t make the dough or an entire pie comfortably? Or maybe you just want some quick finger food for a party. Making these Mini Cherry Pies with only two ingredients and some optional whipped cream topping or ice cream is so simple.

*You can also make your own pie dough if you don’t want to use the store dough.*

  2. Extra dough can be sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and baked along with (or after) the pies as a special treat for grandchildren – or ME! ;->

  11. Nooooooooo, Diane!!!! Ugh. I have a can of cherry pie filling in the pantry but I JUST used the leftover Pillsbury pie crust 2 days ago in an attempt to make cinnamon roll ups. They didn’t turn out good so I dumped them in the trash. Now I wish I still had that crust so I could run in and make these mini cherry pies. :sadpandaface:

    I will add another crust to my shopping list.

      • I was at the grocery store yesterday and walked away from my cart and when I returned there was an Krispy Kreme mini cherry pie up in the top where the handle is. I guess someone mistook it for my cart, but I wondered if it was meant to be … I was good and didn’t keep it but got some cookies instead … must have treats for Fat Tuesday (02/25).

      • I would have taken it as a sign to keep it!!!! Krispy Kreme’s are my absolute favorite donuts!!!!! I don’t not have an off button so they can’t come to my house unless it is only one!!!

    • Thank you! No it is a flat roll up sheet and when the camera sees it the flowers look real with dimension!!! I bought a bunch of different ones. 90% of all my backgrounds are these and so much fun to use. Even the wood looking ones appear real in the camera.

  22. Ok, I just need to make sure…a mini cupcake pan not a regular cupcake pan. In my mind, 3″ seems so large for a mini cupcake hole! And I’m going to make them tomorrow for the big game!
