Chocolate Strawberry Heart Shaped Pie
Valentines Day is just around the corner and this year I would love to make something extra special for my husband and daughter. I think that these Chocolate Strawberry Heart Shaped Pies will not only have the perfect flavors for Valentines Day but will be festive and taste amazing! I can’t wait to see the look on their faces when they see these adorable little heart shaped pies!
Ingredients
1 ½ Cups Strawberries, chopped
¼ Cup Sugar
1 Cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
2 Pkg. Refrigerated Pie crusts (4 crusts total)
Egg
Flour for dusting
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425˚.
In a bowl place the Strawberries and ¼ cup of sugar, let sit for 10-15 minutes stirring every five minutes
until a syrup forms.
In a microwave safe bowl melt the Chocolate at 50% power for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth, add to the
strawberries and stir until well combined.
Take the crusts out of the refrigerator 1 at a time and cut into heart shapes with a heart shaped cookie
cutter on a lightly floured surface. I used a 3×4 inch cutter and it made 24 pies.
Place about a tablespoon of filling in the center of a crust in a “V” shape leaving space all around the
edges. Top with a second crust and seal the edges with a fork. Refrigerate while working with the
remaining crusts. You can re-roll the scraps of dough to make additional crusts.
Place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Beat the Egg with 2 teaspoons of water and brush over the pies.
Sprinkle the pies with a pinch of sugar.
Make a few slits with a sharp knife to allow steam to escape while baking.
Bake at 425˚ 12-15 minutes until a deep golden brown.
Let cool before serving.
Do you plan on making anything special for your loved ones this Valentines Day?
That would make a great gift for Valentine’s Day! It looks delicious too. Maybe if I have time I will make one for my boyfriend :).
Hooray for all the wonderful heart-shaped foods and ideas for Valentine’s Day! I like that you added chocolate to the strawberry mini pies for that extra decadent Valentine’s touch.
What a sweet idea for Valentine’s Day. I’ll bet you could even get older children to help make these for a fun family dinner.
