Perfect Dessert for dunking in coffee made from leftover pie crust dough! Sweet sugar and cinnamon pie crust dunkers can also be made from scratch. They are quick and easy too!
These are like little pie crust cookies perfect for dunking in your morning coffee. They are super quick and easy to make and a great dessert to let the kids lend a hand in making.
I love serving these when my friend comes over on Saturday morning. They are the perfect little sweet treat for munching while hanging out.
I usually bust these out around the holiday season when I’m baking a lot of pies but they are great year round treats.
I tend to make dunking strips but sometimes I will cut out fun holiday themed shapes. It doesn’t add any time to prep and kids really like helping cut out the shapes with me.
