Lots of Love Cherry Pies
Become the Queen of Hearts when you make these tart-style cherry pies (but without the pepper and treacle, as in "Alice and Wonderland"). Made as single servings, they disappear at the hands of friends and knaves alike. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

My husband loves pies, but for just two people a whole pie is too much and is often wasted. Since I wanted to bake a cherry pie for Valentine's Day and Washington's birthday I adopted this recipe using Pillsbury refigerated pie crust and canned cherry filling. To give the pies more color, i sprinked each with Betty Crocker red decorating sugar. This is a nice weekend treat that I will definately make again using different cookie cutter shapes. For St. Patricks Day - I want to make pots of gold - shamrocks filled with apple pie filling and sprinkled with yellow and green decorating sugar. And for Easter - easter eggs decorated with different color sugars. The possibilities are endless. Thanks for the great idea.
I did not make the pie crust, instead I bought pre-made pie crust. Worked just fine. The filling is excellent! Yum! I did not use parchment paper, but I should have because they did burn. My fault. Will make these again!

I use cherry pie filling--much quicker--drizzle with pink icing when cool!!

made recipe exactly as given except I brushed the bottom crust with egg white to keep bottom crust from getting soggy.Everyone loved them. Will definetly make again, for family and special occasions.
The crust was so flakey and good! (I used butter flavored shortening) Love the filling too!
