# Ingredients:
→ Filling
01 -
595 g canned cherry pie filling
→ Dough
02 -
2 tubes (226 g each) crescent roll dough
→ Glaze
03 -
120 g powdered sugar
04 -
15-30 ml milk
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat oven to 190°C and spray a standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
02 -
Unroll crescent roll dough pieces and press each into muffin cups with the widest edge at the bottom.
03 -
Spoon 45-60 g (3 to 4 heaping tablespoons) of cherry pie filling into each dough-lined cup, allowing some filling to spill slightly.
04 -
Fold dough corners over the filling to cover as much as possible; the dough will puff while baking.
05 -
Bake for 13 to 14 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
06 -
Whisk powdered sugar with milk, adjusting milk quantity to achieve a smooth, drizzling consistency.
07 -
Remove bites from oven, allow to cool slightly, then drizzle glaze over warm bites before serving.
# Notes:
01 -
Serve warm for best flavor; leftovers keep up to 2 days at room temperature in an airtight container. Reheat in oven at 175°C for a few minutes or microwave briefly.
02 -
For variation, try different pie fillings or add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the filling.
03 -
Brushing dough with melted butter before baking enhances flavor and color.
