ingredients

Pie Crust
2 cups flour
1 pinch salt
10 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
1 egg
¹⁄₃ cup sugar (could be reduced to 1/4 cup)
Filling
jam, jelly (or preserve of your choice)
Other
lollipop sticks
1 egg white

directions

1. Mix the flour and salt together in a large bowl.
2. Cut in the butter, and pinch with the fingers to make fine crumbs.
3. Make a well in the middle. Stir together egg and sugar, and pour into the well.
4. Swiftly mix in with the fingertips until the mixture forms a dough. Do not overmix.
5. Divide into 2 disks, wrap in plastic, and chill in fridge for at least an hour.
6. Preheat oven to 425F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Roll out pie crust until 1/8th of an inch or so thick.
8. Use a 1 1/2 to 2 inch cookie cutter to cut out shapes. A round shape (such as a flower) works very well.
9. Place cut-out dough on cookie sheet, and press in lollipop stick.
10. Spoon 2 teaspoons of jam in to centre and place another cut-out on top.
11. Press together edges with fork or another lollipop stick.
12. Coat with egg white.
13. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown.
