Instructions
Follow these step-by-step instructions to create your own mini cherry hand pies:

- In a medium saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and boils. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Roll out the pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Cut out circles using a round cutter (approximately 4 inches in diameter).
- Place a spoonful of the cherry filling in the center of half of the dough circles.
- Brush the edges of the dough circles with beaten egg, then place a second dough circle on top. Press the edges together to seal and use a fork to create a decorative edge.
- Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sanding sugar.
- Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
- Allow the pies to cool for a few minutes before serving.
