Lydia is leaving us tomorrow, but today is my last day to hang with her. I wanted to bring in loads of pies in her honor, but am a pretty crap pie maker. So when Angelica showed me these fricking adorable lollipies, I knew I’d found my solution. Pre-made pie crust cut into circles filled with jam (I am lazy and just went the jam route) and sealed up on a stick. Sold.
They came out pretty cute (although I didn’t take a single “nice” picture of them for unknown reasons), and were actually pretty easy to do. Well that is once I got the hang of it, the first few came out wonky (like really f’d up with filling going everywhere), but once I made an assembly line of it (as opposed to doing one at a time), they came out nice. The link above has better instructions, but essentially it’s pre-made pie crusts cut into circles, put a dollop on one circle put the stick on top of that, put the other circle on top, seal edges using end of another stick (that’s how you get the cute scallops), brush tops with egg white, and pop them in a 375F oven for 15 minutes. Ta da!
Then wait and watch as your lollipie getter squeals in delight.
That is the best part.
