Sweetie Pie Pops {Plus Hand Pies, Pie Jars, and Printables!} They keep saying that in 2011 “Pie is the new cupcake.” We’ll have to see about that, but for now I’ll add to the hype. Valentines day is just around the corner and if you need something that is 100% guaranteed to put a smile on someone’s face- I have it right here! Homemade pie dough really is a cinch to whip up though, so if you’re not used to making your own, give it a shot! If you’re making pops, you want to keep your hearts small- if they’re too large, the sticks won’t be able to hold them up. You can use any filling you like, store-bought or homemade. If you want to be crazy like me, throw a little chocolate in there too. A quick homemade apple is fantastic too- you only need one apple! Remember to only fill half of your shapes with filling. Keep a little bowl of water next to you and use it to wet your finger and run it along that open edge. You have some options for the tops. Prick a whole in each pie as well, so that steam can escape and then pop them in the oven.
