Granny's Cherry Desserts

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: County Fair Cherry Pie
Categories: Five, Pies, Pastry, Fruits
     Yield: 6 servings

 1 1/4 c  Sugar
     2 tb Cornstarch
       ds Salt
     4 c  Pitted tart cherries
          Dough for double-crust pie
          Confectioners' sugar

 In a large saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt;
 stir in cherries. Let stand 30 minutes.

 Cook and stir cherry mixture over medium heat until
 mixture boils and starts to thicken.

 Pour into jars or freezer containers, leaving 1/2-in.
 headspace. Cool. Cover with lids; refrigerate or freeze.
 Yield: 3 cups filling for one pie.

 TO MAKE PIE: Set oven @ 375oF/190oC. On a lightly
 floured surface, roll one half of dough to a 1/8" thick
 circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim crust to
 1/2" beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Add thawed
 filling. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is
 bubbly, 40-45 minutes. Cover edges during the last 20
 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Cool on a wire rack.

 Meanwhile, roll remaining dough to 1/8" thick circle;
 cut stars using floured star-shaped cutters. Place on an
 ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 7-11 minutes or until
 golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool.

 To serve, dust stars with confectioners' sugar; place
 over pie. Lightly dust edges of pie with confectioners'
 sugar.
