Ingredients

  • 1 package of frozen puff pastry Thawed according to the instructions on the box.
  • 1 can pie filling
  • 1 large egg

Vanilla Icing

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F—line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Whisk together 1 tbsp of water and one egg in a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Sprinkle a small amount of flour onto your countertop. Gently roll the puff pasty out length-wise until it's about 2 -3 inches longer. Cut the dough into roughly 5x5 inch squares.
  • Carefully scoop about 1½ tablespoons of cherry pie filling onto each square. Gently brush the egg and water mixture around all four edges of each square using a pastry brush.
  • Fold each pastry in half horizontally and carefully press around both open edges with a fork.
  • Place each pastry on a baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
  • Remove the pastries from the oven and let them cool completely.

Vanilla Icing

  • Mix powdered sugar, water, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until thoroughly blended.
  • Pour the icing into a large Zip-lock bag. Cut a little hole in the corner and drizzle the frosting over the cooled turnovers. Serve and ENJOY!
