Pie Crust Chips
- 1 batch unbaked store-bought or homemade pie crust dough
- 2 to 3 tablespoons milk or cream
- ⅓ cup cinnamon sugar (made by mixing 2 tablespoons cinnamon into ½ cup granulated sugar)
Cinnamon Dip
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F to ensure it’s hot enough to crisp up the pie crust chips perfectly.
- Roll Out Dough: On a floured surface or on parchment paper, roll the pie crust dough out to about ⅛ to ¼-inch thickness. This thickness will ensure the chips bake evenly and become crisp.
- Cut Shapes: Use a leaf-shaped cookie cutter dipped in flour to cut out shapes from the dough. Dipping in flour prevents sticking and helps clean cuts.
- Brush and Sprinkle: Gently brush each dough leaf with milk or cream to help the cinnamon sugar adhere, then sprinkle each piece generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Bake: Place the prepared dough leaves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
- Prepare Dip: While the chips bake, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon in a small bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Remove the chips from the oven and transfer them to a serving tray. Serve warm or at room temperature alongside the cinnamon cream cheese dip for dipping.
Notes
- You can use store-bought pie crust dough for convenience or homemade if preferred for richer flavor.
- Ensure the pie crust is rolled evenly for uniform baking.
- Substitute pumpkin pie spice with ground cinnamon for a milder flavor in the dip.
- These chips are best enjoyed the same day to retain crispness.
- Store any leftover dip covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
