Ingredients- Box of refrigerated pie crusts: 1 (or make your own), creating the crispy shell

- Step 4:
- Coat tops with beaten egg. Combine the sugar and cinnamon and dust generously over each cookie.
- Step 3:
- Top each filled piece with another dough circle. Seal edges by pressing down with a fork.
- Step 2:
