I have heard of women who, when they make a pie, they take the pie crust scraps and bake them as little additional treats. I had never done that... until two days ago! I made a delcious chicken pot pie from scratch, and I decided to take the crust scraps and sprinkle them with a little bit of cinnamon and sugar. I put them in the oven to bake while we were eating supper and oh! it was such a delicious and little effort dessert! Now I want to make a pie crust just for sprinkling cinnamon and sugar on! I have to admit, it tastes an aweful lot like the shortbread cookies I made last week! Kinda funny, I thought.
My kids get creative with their pie crusts too and your right they taste much like cookies when you have sugar and such on them!! I love seeing the creativity of my children in the kitchen. Have a wonderful weekend! With much love, Mrs. Joseph Wood
