7. A Chocolate Pie That Doesn’t Require A Pie Crust
It can be troublesome to make a pie crust from scratch. You have to crush graham crackers, mix them with butter, and then press the mix down into a pie tin to get its shape. Moreover, if you bake it for too long, it can get too dry and crack. So why not skip the pie crust altogether? The kids will especially love this recipe because it’s no different from making a regular grilled cheese sandwich, except instead of cheese, you’re adding cherries and chocolate.
Called a pudgy pie, you place pie filling, almonds, and chocolate chips between two pieces of bread. Then, pop it onto a hot pan, and cook until both sides of the bread are brown and the chocolate has started to melt. These fast and easy treats for kids are ideal during winter when the snow has fallen, and you don’t want to go outside. Of course, there are many variations to this yummy dessert, so you can really customize it with the ingredients you prefer. Let your kids make their own versions of the pudgy pie to show off their unique palette!
