Sealed with a Kiss

A bit of bad luck had fallen upon one of the roomies one day, so necessarily, baking was in order.  Problem: the house was lacking in most of the essentials found in most recipes. The solution: two ingredient mini-pies that were as quick and easy to gobble up as they were to make.  We had a left over pie crust from the apple baking spree from the previous weekend, and a bag of Hershey's Hugs.  With the addition of a little melted butter or egg wash, and some cinnamon and sugar, these little pastries were completed and baked faster than the gloomy roomie could shed a tear!
Pre-baking!
Kiss Pies
1 pre-made pie crust
1 bag of Hershey's kisses (any flavor)
1 tbsp. butter
sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Roll out the thawed dough on a floured surface, and place kisses about 2-3 inches apart around the edge of the dough.  Cut even circles around the kisses.  Fold opposite sides of the circle to each other at the top of the kiss, making a wonton shape, and press together firmly.  Re-roll the dough and repeat process until all the dough is used up.  Place them on a lightly Pam-ed baking sheet, brush each with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, then bake for 10-20 min., or until pies are golden brown, then remove and sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.  I promise these bite-sized treats will turn any frown upside down :)
