My First Cherry Pie!

Fall is in the air.......and I got to go shopping!

With one of my best friends

Ain't she cute?

Too bad we don't get together often enough, she lives in the State next door to Missouri.......Illinois

and its her daughters Sweet 16 Birthday coming up!

We did lots of shopping after Sushi, yum!

I baked my first cherry pie.....

Wala'

And cut....pretty huh?

Not really but it tasted good. (ok, its not burnt lol)

I used:

1 can cherry pie filling

1 can lite cherry pie filling

Graham cracker crust

Made a double batch top pie cover (flour, egg, shortening)

Brushed with melted butter and baked at 450 for 30 minutes due to the double crust.

I liked the double crust on top, made it much less cherry-ish.
