Aunt Maxine Polings Fool Proof Recipe For Pie Crust Recipes

AUNT MAXINE POLING'S FOOL-PROOF RECIPE FOR PIE CRUST

Steps:

• 1. Put in a large mixing bowl the flour, salt and sugar stir well. Cut in the Crisco with fork or pastry blender until crumbly. In a small bowl beat the egg and stir in the water and vinegar. Add to flour mixture and mix. Divide dough into 4 equal parts, shape into a nice round ball and put into plastic bag. Chill for 30 minutes before rolling out. Bake according to your recipe instructions for either one crust empty or filled, or double-crust pies. Makes 4 single-crust or 2 double-crust. Can refrigerate up to 7 days before rolling out.
• 2. Note from CinStraw: Depending on what kind of pie it is I sometimes sprinkle cinnamon-sugar (or Splenda) over the crust before baking. Or sometimes I will sprinkle sugr crystals over the crust befor baking.

CIN'S "EASY CHERRY-BLUEBERRY PIE"

Steps:

• 1. I made enough pastry for a double crust pie (recipe link below). Warmed the canned cherry pie filling in a sauce pan on the stove, with the rum and lemon juice. Pour 1/2 of it into the pastry-crust you've put in bottom of pie plate. Sprinkled a layer of ''fresh frozen'' blueberries on top of cherry filling, then pour the other half of the cherry pie filling on top of the blueberries. Covered with a the other pastry crust, seal edges and crimp. Brush the liquid egg white over the top of crust and edges. Then I made some slits (also an ''S'' for my last name) on top crust and sprinkled sugar crystals on top. I used red & clear crystals. Baked pie at 425 dF for 30 minutes. Don't let edges get too dark or burn, cover edges if needed. OPTION: Serve hot or warm with vanilla ice cream. Easy as pie =;D & delish!!!

• 39. My friend Judy has been at it again... Cin, looky what I made today..."Hamburger Cookies". All you do is buy some mini vanilla wafers, and either buy or make vanilla icing. Color one half of the icing with yellow food coloring for the "mustard" (or if you prefer, call it cheese) and color the other half of the vanilla frosting with red food coloring for the "ketchup". Spread one vanilla wafer with the "mustard", place an Andes chocolate mint on top, then coat another vanilla wafer with the "Ketchup" and place on top of the chocolate mint. Spread a dab of white Karo syrup on top and shake a bit of sesame seed on. That's it, easy as can be and they are so cute. I think the little kids are going to love them. Love ya, Judy
• 40. Hey Cin, then this afternoon I made these; "Pretzel Bites". For the pretzel bites, place small pretzel circles on parchment paper, top with a Hershey's Kiss and place in a 275 degree oven for 3-to-5 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately place an M&M or walnut half or pecan half on top. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to set, then store in an airtight container (I used walnuts and M&M's). Love ya, Judy
