The individual pies turned out great!  We haven’t tasted them yet – but from the looks of them, they are amazing!

The pie crust recipe I used was found on www.pioneerwomancooks.com – look in her holiday folder and its in there.  I only made 1/2 a recipe since I only had pie crust on the top.

Um, this is NOT LOW FAT.  That’s why I think it will taste amazing!
