In the last couple of weeks, I have made over 700 cupcakes. \u00a0Jebus. \u00a0That is A LOT of cupcakes when I take a moment to think about it. \u00a0To add to that, I have probably made about 10 cakes, 2 of which were HUGE wedding cakes!<\/p>\n

\"Oreo<\/a><\/p>\n

But, there comes a time when it is so much fun to make something new! \u00a0When I saw this post on ….. I knew that I had to make them for the upcoming market. \u00a0Adding them my arsenal of cupcakes, cakes and cookies at the farmers market proved to be successful!<\/p>\n

I have never actually worked with pie dough before, and I realize know that I have enter a whole new realm of the baking world. \u00a0It’s not so simple as throwing together some cake batter in my KitchenAid Mixer! \u00a0Due to my time constraint, rookie status, I opted for a pre-made pie dough . . . \u00a0*GASP* . . . I know, I know, but since then I have tracked down a recipe that I will try for upcoming pie postings. \u00a0Everyone can let out their collective sighs of relieve . . . now. \u00a0 Phewf.<\/p>\n

This recipe is not my genius . . . though I am thinking of a variation of it . . . can that be called “mine”? \u00a0It comes from one of the websites that I frequent for new and awesome ideas. \u00a0The combination of Oreo, Peanut Butter and Pie Crust, is simple, amazing . . . and definitely requires a cold glass of milk near by!<\/p>\n

I have no idea where Jenny of Picky Palate<\/a> gets her amazingly simple ideas from, but she is brilliant in my eyes. \u00a0She is the one who created the Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip cookie<\/a> that has become a blogosphere sensation!<\/p>\n

Oreo Peanut Butter Mini Pies<\/p>\n

From Picky Palate<\/a><\/p>\n

You are going to need:<\/div>\n
Two refrigerated 9 inch pie crusts (If you cheated like me, or your own tried and true recipe)<\/div>\n
20 Oreo Cookies<\/div>\n
1 cup creamy peanut butter<\/div>\n
2 tablespoons melted butter<\/div>\n
2 tablespoons granulated sugar<\/div>\n
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and spray 10 muffin cups with Pam, or non stick cooking spray.<\/div>\n
2. Unroll pie crusts and cut out eight 4-inch rounds (I used 3 7\/8 pastry round cutter and managed to get 10 pies)<\/em>. Press into prepared muffin pan.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
3. Spread 1 tablespoon of peanut butter over each cookie then stack 2 cookies on top of each other.<\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
Place 2 stacked cookies into pie crusts.<\/div>\n

With remaining pie dough, cut long thin strips to prepare lattice top. Follow Jenny’s photos on her post to make lattice tops as her pictures tell the story!<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
4. Brush melted butter over tops then sprinkle generously with sugar. Bake for 22-26 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool then remove from pan.<\/div>\n
