Pie Crust Cutters

With our winter holidays right around the corner I thought I would share a cute little tool that I just found that will make all your holiday pies even more festive. For $20 at Williams-Sonoma you can get either the Thanksgiving themed pie cutters or the Christmas theme ones! All you have to do is make a little extra pie dough (or buy an extra sheet) and cut some out and place around or on top of your holiday pies! Come Thanksgiving I will be trying out the cutters on my apple and pumpkin pies! Stay tuned and you will get to see how wonderful these little tools really are!

This is a great little treat for those who like portioned out desserts or something handy that is great for a party!
