Blackberry Cream Cheese Pie Dippers

Ingredients
4 round pie crusts (frozen & thawed, refrigerated or make your own)
2 small containers of fresh blackberries
2 T granulated sugar
2 T water
1 T cornstarch
1 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
3 T water
Decorator's sugar
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 T milk

Preheat oven to 375*.
Unroll your pie crusts and place on floured surface.

In sauce pan add blackberries, 1 T water and 2 T sugar and bring to a boil, stirring often until blackberries are tender and you can mash them with a spoon.

Mix 1 T water with 1 T cornstarch and add to your blackberry mixture, reduce heat to simmer and stir and continue mashing until thickened. Set aside to cool.

Once cooled, mix your blackberry mixture, cream cheese, 1/2 cup remaining sugar and vanilla together until combined.

Place 2 bottom crusts on individual pizza stone or large baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat.

Spread over bottom of 2 pie crusts until it reaches about 1/2" from edges.  Place other 2 pie crusts on top of the blackberry mixture and using a fork, seal the edges shut.  Mix together your egg and 2 T water and brush over tops of pies.  Sprinkle with decorator's sugar.

Bake each pie separately for 25-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.  Remove from oven and let cool. Once cooled, slice into 1" strips with sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Mix together powdered sugar and milk until smooth.

Enjoy!
