mini pies
One of my favorite desserts to make are mini pies. I know Lauren has blogged about hers, but I make mine a little differently. First, I make them from pre-made pie crust because it is so much easier. I use a bowl to cut out little round circles that fit perfectly into a muffin pan, fill the curst with apple filling and top it off with some cake mix and a pat of butter.
I bake them up, then wrap them in press-n-seal and then in a zip lock. Then I throw them into the freezer. So whenever Paul want’s a quick dessert, all he has to do is warm it up in the microwave.Â
I know, I cheat a bit, but you wouldn’t know it to taste them!

Lucky Paul. Thanks for the idea. Maybe I’ll do that for Dad. I could make mini pecan pies.
