Delicious gluten free mini cherry pies drizzled with a sweet powdered sugar icing that makes the perfect dessert bite!

My first thought when opening the Pillsbury Gluten Free Pie and Pastry Dough was to make a traditional cherry pie, so I gathered everything I needed to make it happen. I grabbed a pie dish, kneaded the Gluten-Free Dough (as directed on the tub), flattened the dough with a rolling pin, then stopped. It just wasn’t exciting enough. I really wanted to do something different.

Soooooo…I thought back to my last Pillsbury Gluten Free Dough recipe I made, which was for Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cups, and wondered if I could make something “mini” with this pastry dough as well. Aha! Mini cherry pies!
