A delightful Valentine's treat made with pie crust shaped like envelopes, filled with strawberry jam and optional cherry pie filling, then baked to golden perfection. Perfect for making with little ones.
1: Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2: On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 pie crust.
3: Using a paring knife, cut out long diamond shapes, about 4 inches on each side.
4: Transfer diamonds to the baking sheet and reroll extra dough to make more diamonds.
5: Fill the center of each diamond with a very small dollop of strawberry filling.
6: Fold three of the corners into the center to form an open envelope shape and press down lightly to seal.
7: Use a small heart cookie cutter to stamp out remaining dough into hearts and place a heart in the center of each envelope.
8: Brush the envelopes with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
9: Bake until the envelopes are golden, about 15 minutes. Optionally, add a few cherries on top before baking.
