Ingredients: (for reference)

Pie Dough:

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, chilled
  • 6 to 8 tablespoons ice cold water

Berry Pie Filling: (any filling you like)

  • 1 1/2 cups mixed fresh raspberries and strawberries
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Others:

  • Flour, for dusting
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Sugar, for dusting
  • Lollipop sticks
  • Cookies cutter
  • Fork

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out dough on a well-floured surface until it is 1/8-inch thick.
  3. Using cookie cutter, cut out heart shape. If the dough becomes too soft, place the entire baking sheet into the refrigerator to chill.
  4. Place filling in the center, leaving a border about 1/4-inch from the edges. Place the lollypop stick, and brush egg wash.
  5. Press the edges together gently with your finger and then use a fork to make sure the edges are completely sealed. (Use a little flour on your fork so your fork doesn’t stick to the pie dough.)
  6. Brush the tops of each pie pop with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
  7. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
