Mcdonald’S Holiday Pie

Step 1

Take a medium sized bowl (small enough to fit in the freezer compartment) and add the flour salt and sugar. Mix with a spoon or whisk and place in the freezer until completely cold, this normally takes around an hour.

Step 2

Place your oil in a small dish and place in the freezer at the same time. Whilst you are waiting preheat your oven to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 3

Remove both oil and flour mix from the freezer and little bit little, add the oil to the flour whilst stirring constantly, the end result should look similar to crumbly, ragged bread crumbs. Then, a quarter at a time, add your water and stir until you have a smooth dough.

Step 4

In a separate bowl add your milk and then, whilst constantly stirring, add the pudding mix. Once it has dissolved add the yellow cake mix. If using, add the sprinkles also.

Step 5

With a rolling pin and on a lightly floured surface, roll your dough as thin as you can, avoid handling the dough too much with your hands or it will get warm.

Step 6

Once the dough is flat and uniform in thickness, cut into rectangles that are twice as long as they are wide. Divide the rectangles into two piles, one pile will be the bottom, the other the top.

Step 7

Spoon your filling into the center of each rectangle, leaving a gap around the edges. Brush the exposed edges with a little water. Once this is complete take another rectangle from your ‘top’ pile and place over the filling. Seal the edges with a fork and make a small hole in the top of each Pie to allow steam to vent, and to prevent them from spilling their contents all over the oven.

Step 8

Brush the top of the Pie with your beaten egg and then dust with the sprinkles until you are happy with the appearance.

Step 9

Bake the Pies on a baking sheet for around 15-20 mins, you will know when they are done as they will turn golden brown.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy, mind your fingers!
