Directions

PREHEAT oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with Reynolds Kitchens® Parchment Paper with Stay Flat® Dispensing.

UNROLL pie crusts on a flour dusted surface and roll out slightly. Using a heart cutter, cut 12 hearts from both pastry sheets. Place 6 hearts on prepared baking sheet.

SPREAD 1 tablespoon filling to within 1/2 inch of the edge of the 6 hearts. Brush the edges with a little water and top with a second heart. Press to seal and then using the tines of a fork, press around the edge of each tart to seal.

BAKE 6 to 8 minutes until pastries are puffed and golden. Cool completely.

WHISK together powdered sugar, milk and extract. Add a drop or two of food coloring until desired color is achieved. Adjust with more milk or powdered sugar to dipping/spreading consistency. Spread on each tart and decorate with sprinkles.
