Easter Egg Hand Pies

This post contains affiliate links.

I picked up some Easter egg cookie cutters on a whim last month. I was at Michael’s (probably no big surprise!) and went a little crazy shopping their Easter displays. I bought a whole bunch of stuff since I had one of their awesome coupons and couldn’t resist the cute cookie cutters. I was thinking of making cookies, but changed my mind last minute and made Easter Egg Hand Pies. They were a hit with my daughters and their friends!

Easter Egg Hand Pies - Super easy Easter dessert made with refrigerated pie crust, melted chocolate and sprinkles! A fun Easter recipe for the kids to make.


I used one 9 inch refrigerated pie crust dough (my fave is Pillsbury!), milk chocolate chips, vegetable oil and sprinkles galore.

Inside each Easter egg is melted milked chocolate chips. For the exterior, I melted milk chocolate chips and vegetable oil in the microwave and brushed the mixture on one side of my egg. Immediately, add your sprinkles on top. The chocolate acts like a glue to hold the sprinkles in place.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 1 9-inch refrigerated pie crust
    • ¾ cup milk chocolate chips
    • 1 tsp vegetable oil
    • Sprinkles and/or small candies for garnish

    Instructions

    • Roll out refrigerated pie crust on a clean surface. Use egg shaped cookie cutters to cut out an even number of eggs.
    • Place one egg on a greased baking sheet. Add about 1 to 2 tsp of milk chocolate chips to the centre of each egg.
    • Cover each egg with another egg shaped piece of dough. Press edges to seal.
    • Bake in a 450°F preheated oven for 8 to 9 minutes or until golden brown.
    • Add the remaining chocolate chips to a microwavable bowl. Add vegetable oil. Microwave on 50% power for 45 seconds. Stir. Microwave an additional 15 seconds on 50%. Stir. If not melted, then put in another 15 seconds at 50% power.
    • Add a teaspoon of melted chocolate to the top of one of your baked Easter eggs. Spread with a pastry brush to cover. Top with sprinkles or candies. Repeat for remaining eggs.
