Isn’t great to live in a world where there are such adorable Valentine’s? I remember being a kid and loving the cute cards from all my classmates. If I got one today though, boy would I be excited!
There are so many cute ideas and if you’re not the crafty type, there are plenty that are super simple!
This year Franco’s classmates are getting these adorable love bug fruit cups. Most materials you can find at Dollar Tree or you just order everything off Amazon.
I found these jelly cups with fruit in them. You can use applesauce, Jello or fruit cups, it’s all up to you!
The best part about these cute crafts is that they are fully customizable. You can use different color lip cleaners and Pom poms, different sized eyes etc. the possibilities are endless and the beat part is your little one will love to help you make these!
Bake tart cherry filling in pieces of simple pie dough and you’ve got yourself a delicious holiday dessert that any one can make!
The holidays are quickly approaching and I am giving it a little twist with this new and easy dessert. Remember my homemade cherry pie filling that I made over the summer? I am so thankful I did this because I whipped up this crowd pleasing Cherry Pull-Apart Tart.
I am sure there will be many little fingers running around this holiday season whether you are at a party or home on Christmas morning. This tart gives the perfect portion with one bite pieces with a huge tart and juicy flavor.
This recipe is super easy because I am using already made pie crust and if you don’t have fresh cherries, feel free to use store bought! The holidays are meant to spend time with friends and family not in the kitchen.
Ingredients:
-1 package of home style pie crust (there are two in a package)
– 21 oz. can of cherry pie filling or you can use my homemade cherry pie filling here
-1 egg
Directions:
Roll out both of your pie crusts and cut out as many circles as you can with a mason jar lid.
Take one circle and fold it like a taco shell, take a small spoonful of cherry filling and place it in the shell. Pinch both ends and place in a round baking dish.
Continue doing this in a spiral until your baking dish is filled.
Mix your egg with a splash of water to make an egg wash. Brush the wash all over the edges of each shell.
In a preheated oven of 425 degree F, bake tart for about 25-30 minutes.
Once cooled, feel free to sprinkle with powdered sugar. Enjoy!
